I have been cleaning out cabinets and old shed looking for my wife's grandfathers old fly rod reels and found a old frog popper.  and was wondering if anyone can identify it for me.. the only one I have been able to find that looks like it was on ebay listed as a paw paw watta frog. but after seeing one posted on this site it does not look the same and I know a person posting it on this site would know better than someone on ebay..

@lab . . .

The lure looks to be a copy of the Paw Paw Fly rod popper. I would guess it was made by Weber and dates to approx 1960 or so
