The 1992 Lazy Ike fishing lure catalog provides collectors with a detailed albeit brief look at the lures and fishing tackle offered by Lazy Ike now that it was part of the PRADCO Corporation.  By 1992, Lazy Ike had been purchased by PRADCO / EBSCO Corporation and their line of lures to be put in production was greatly limited. 

Lures they made are in this catalog are still popular with fishermen and some collectors yet today.  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My Bait Shop Master Catalog Archive Project (MCAP), a growing digital archive of vintage fishing tackle catalogs and historical reference materials for collectors and researchers.

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 1992 Lazy Ike Catalog

This is an important catalog in its own right.  The first catalog since PRADCO bought out Lazy Ike / Creek Chub out of bankruptcy and took over the brands in 1991.  They issued this combined catalog for 1992 and Lazy Ike was relegated to the final page.

They kept only the Lazy Ike KL1-Mite Ike, KL2-Lazy Ike, KL3-Mighty Ike and KL4-Magnum Ike in production while giving them updated names.  Still classic lures.  This is the only PAPER catalog that would be in production to my knowledge for the rest of Lazy Ike's run at PRADCO, ending sometime prior to 2020.
