I had one of those fishing days like most of us have in our lifetime where the fish would only eat pretty much one lure. It's made by the Ohio Lure company. It's called a little donkey. Does anyone know if they still make it? I heard the company closed shop. Smallmouth were tearing it up last spring. It wasn't until the last two hours that I figured the bite out and it was one after another.

Can you still get this lure? This Ohio Fishing Company made them
I'm interested to see replies. I had a favorite 'plug' in the 80s that I pulled for for walleyes called Natural Tike. It outfished every other plug in my war chest by a 10-1 margin. I caught on to them after the builders of Lazy Ike quit making them and since this was before internet, the six that I had were all that I could find and after a few years the stumps at Pymy claimed them all.
I got to believe the owners of that company here in Ohio have to still have the mold to make that bait.
This is the email that was associated with Verbinator / Ohio lures. (from their Facebook page) Maybe he can help you if the email is still active.

This is from another fishing website:
Ohio Pro Lure Company of Medina, OH. Chris Verbosky and David Moss are the owners and merged their businesses in 2014.
I think they merged with Verbinator in 2019 ?

Several years ago I was fishing Lake Nipissing with a couple of friends and the fish weren't biting very well that day. As a joke, my one friend put on a very old lure he had found somewhere. It looked like a jointed dog turd made of rubber that was so old that it was starting to disintegrate. Every time he threw it out a fish would hit it immediately. We sat there in amazement watching him pull in pike and small mouth for a good 20 minutes until the lure finally disintegrated and was no longer useful. Over the years I've searched for a lure like that but have been unable to find one. It appeared to be from the 1930's or 1940's.
