First time my grandpa used one he was 15-years old. His family had a farm that backed up to Middletown Lake near Montgomery City. He says he threw across a mouth of a cove and a 4-5 lb fish hit. He lost it. The next four casts he caught four bass 4.5 lbs. Said they were identical. Of course that was the day and age of catch and keep, so he loaded up the stringer and great grandma fried them up with frog legs for dinner for the 20+ people at the house. 

He used that thing religiously and swears by it. He's too afraid to use any of the ones today.

Your grandpa might have been the "ol'fart" I'm speaking of.   The bait shop I worked at was in Mexico, only one county away from Montgomery City.

Guy wanted some bluegill pattern lunch monies so I tied him some. Wanted an articulated one, too, so I got creative.

Then I decided to make a rainbow pattern. No legs because of the Trophy Area on Taney.

@Phil Lilleycouldn't get down this week due to job interviews but I will be down next week around this time. I'll stop by and let you take a look and if you want to try and sell some you can!

what kind of legs didn't you use 

Rubber legs. I have silicone but they just don't swim right and are better for hoppers.
