Default Re: Original, natural Jitterbug

Found a box of JETTERBUGS from late 60's which were my grandfather's.

All are BALSA, one is the split bug in pristine shape. I remember using them when I was kid it hooked me on night fishing on the PT VIEW RESEVIOR. water bite on a bug at night is a surreal experience.
GLUG, GLUG,GLUG...BAM!

Do I fish them and frame them? Afraid a muskie or mud snake (pickerel) will bite off even with a thick mono leader.
