Old wooden fishing lures.

I was browsing ebay for 'old wooden fishing lures', hoping to pick up a few for restoration and repair, and came across a seller from the US who has a unique method of presentation. Points for trying I suppose, but someone needs to tell this young lady that good lures will sell themselves, she needn't have bothered getting all dressed up.

eeeeewwwww,


 


I see no air quality control mentioned in the listings - What if she inadvertently ( or purposefully ) released a mist, fog, cloud, cyclone or worse - miasma.


 


Would these sharp spiky items be disinfected or at least cleansed before release?


I suppose the phrase " We don't know where they've been"does not apply:^O:^O


 


 



 


if those lures don't smell like fish now they never will

I am sure she is selling much more than lures, or should I say luring more than fishermen ๐Ÿ™‚

No, I just get asked if I can do it cheaper or make it longer. ๐Ÿ˜ž



 


 


No I understand... Though I think she probably gets exactly those types of questions as well :8}

She had better mind those hooks.


 



 


You're telling me ๐Ÿ˜ฎ ..did you notice where the lures with the smaller 3 hooks were displayed as compared two the comparitive safety of the larger two hooked ones?


 


For mine I think that It makes no difference whether it's three  smaller pricks or a couple of big ones she is obviously oblivious to the damage that these suckers can cause n that area ๐Ÿ˜
