Pflueger was a pioneer in the fishing lure world and their name is synonymous with fine craftsmanship. This Pflueger Trump Model 1943 was manufactured from 1943 to 1980. This is of course one of the earlier ones. It is level wind, star drag with a nickel finish and ivory coloured handles. Fair condition, needs some attention.
Dimensions: 4"(L) x 2-½"(W)
What could be more associated with early cottaging than fishing? North America has always been abundant in fish, and therefore vintage and antique fishing lures and gear shows the art and workmanship that went into creating the tools that made catching a "lunker" a bit easier. Antique fishing lures and fishing items have become increasingly popular to hang as artwork for the cottage, such as shadowboxing old fishing lures, or hanging old fishing rods, creels and nets as decor.
About Fishing Gear
Be it a vintage rod and reel combo, an old creel or a vintage and rare fishing lure, all of our items can either be used for decoration in a cottage setting, or as additions for that special collector.
About Our Fishing Items
Since we're located in Ontario, Canada - home of big bass, muskellunge (maskinonge), northern pike and pickerel (walleye), most of the vintage fishing equipment we sell is for freshwater fishing. Where possible, we will estimate the age of any item we sell, and do not attempt to restore any items - but most of the items we sell will be in condition that would make it as useful and effective today as it was when it was originally manufactured.
