ABOUT THE BOOK

Frog lures have been around for as long as there have been artificial baits. Now, for the first time ever, author and noted frog lure collector Don Wheeler has brought together the definitive guide to all things frog. Wheeler covers the frog lure in all its types and styles, from fly rod to musky, and includes chapters on MISCELLANEOUS, HEDDON, PAW PAW, PFLUEGER, SHAKESPEARE, SOUTH BEND, TADPOLES & POLLYFROGS, FLY ROD FROGS, VINTAGE FOLK ART FROGS, CONTEMPORARY FOLK ART FROGS, FROG HOOKS & HARNESSES, FROG SPEARING DECOYS, FROG RELATED ITEMS, FROG LURE BOXES, and FROG DISPLAYS. Every frog is shown in detailed photographs along with historical information and current price. From the ultra rare Hosmer to the ever popular Halik Frogs, this is the one book frog collectors have been waiting for since the hobby began. Includes an introduction and appreciation by legendary collector and author Dick Streater.
