Field Notes

This is a collectible wooden surface lure shaped like a grasshopper, best suited to calm water presentations where fish are feeding near the top. Work it with short twitches or a steady retrieve to imitate an insect struggling on the surface. The box and vintage construction make it especially appealing to collectors as well as anglers who fish classic topwater patterns.

Pros

  • Rare vintage Macatawa collectible
  • Detailed wooden construction with box
  • Surface presentation can draw aggressive strikes

Cons

  • Likely fragile compared with modern lures
  • Specialized profile may be less versatile
  • High collector value makes it less ideal for hard use
