Lures Kids Hoodies

A vintage illustration of fishing lures and trout flies.

James Heddon came upon the idea for an artificial fishing lure in 1894 when he threw a stick he had whittled into a local lake known as Mill Pond and watched as a bass hit it. His original lures were frogs carved from broomsticks and, over the next several years he shared them with fellow fishing enthusiasts in his Dowagiac, Michigan community and used their feedback to further refine his designs. By 1900 he was selling his lures locally, but as word got out, he formalized things and founded the Heddon Company in 1902. . He continued to make every lure by hand in the Heddon family kitchen, but by 1904 he opened a new factory in Dowagiac. By 1950 the Heddon name was well known and the company would go on to other peripheral fishing gear.

Fishing lures can be a great conversation starter and a way to share stories and memories of past fishing trips. Collecting lures can also be a way to honor the legacy of favorite fishing spots, family members or friends. It's not hoarding, but rather preserving and cherishing a piece of history and tradition.
