Collector Tip
Don't discount the "newer" lures from companies such as PRADCO and Rapala. These lures have started to become collectible in their owns rights and have aged decades already. We all long for the age of wooden lures and glass eyes but those have passed. Don't miss out on some of the great lure makers of today.

Historical Notes from the 2004 Bomber Bait Catalog
A lot of people don't like the newer PRADCO models and catalogs but I am not one of those people. I think they have aged well and PRADCO over time is doing more to honor the history of the hobby and they are putting out some great products. This catalog here is an example of a great catalog that has aged well. Nice cover and very well put together. Not the cookie cutters that you see in other era's or companies. Kudos! Afterall these things are just as collectible as the baits themselves over time.
Page 2 starts out with a little history of the Bomber Bait Company which is fantastic. It keeps paying it forward and educates the younger anglers. The Suspending Pro Long A is NEW in this catalog as shown on page 3. The next few pages show a variety of their extremely successfuly Long A series of baits in great colors.
Page 9 starts to get into the smaller Model A's with the Shallow A and Square A. Page 10 announces the new Model A in the 8A size. Followed by more Model A's, Flat A's and some other great lures. Lastly on the back cover I want to call out the Bomber hats. Great to see stuff like this in production. Great for the fans!
