Weighing in at 3/16 oz (6 g), this Creek Chub Spinning Pikie demonstrates the shift toward lighter tackle that occurred in the mid-20th century. This particular specimen, categorized under product code 8899, features a deep, solid black finish across its 2 1/4" (6 cm) plastic body. Identified as model 9313P from the 1960-1970 era, it represents a transition period for the Creek Chub Bait Company, which began its legacy in 1906. The hardware is remarkably well-preserved, with the classic stamped metal diving lip and twin treble hooks showing the durability of original USA manufacturing. The condition of this specific lure is rated 5/5, reflecting its well-maintained surface and clean metal components. A distinctive "Creek Chub Pikie" stamp is visible along the back, a hallmark of the brand's most famous lure profile. The nose is equipped with a factory snap-swivel attached directly to the diving lip, designed for casting on light spinning gear.
