The 1960 Kautzky's Lazy Ike fishing lure catalog provides collectors with a detailed look at the lures and fishing tackle offered by the Kautzky Lazy Ike Company.  By 1960, the Kautzky family was wildly successful and was just a couple of years away from selling the company.

Vintage fishing lure catalogs like this are important reference materials for identifying lure models, studying finishes and packaging, and researching the history of classic fishing tackle.

This catalog is part of the My Bait Shop Master Catalog Archive Project (MCAP), a growing digital archive of vintage fishing tackle catalogs and historical reference materials for collectors and researchers.

Historical Notes from the 1960 Lazy Ike Catalog

This is another very tough catalog to find.  Some great info in this short but sweet catalog.  My favorite lure, the Flex Ike, has a new size for 1960, the FL-1 so now it comes in 3 sizes.  Also new is the KL-2 and KL-3 in Metallic Lazy Ike.  The WSK Jig Ike (better you never heard of that one) is new, as is the New WJC Weedless Jig Crawler, and a new look for for the Lazy Ike Hoopskirt.  Also be sure to check out the "98" Ike, still one of my favorites.

 

Below is the complete scanned 1960 Lazy Ike fishing lure catalog. Each page is shown in order so collectors and researchers can study the lure models, finishes, and tackle descriptions used by the Lazy Ike Corporation during this period.

NOTE:  These pages had fold outs.  I did not stich them together but you can get a good sense of what they look like folded out together.
