Moonlight Bait Company / PawPaw Bait
Early 1900, a man invented and got a patent for a fishing lure. He got some partners to go in with him and incorporated and they started manufacturing them. They were made of cedar wood and painted with bright colors. 10 years later they sold this company to a major fishing tackle company. The new owners made this bait for 20 more years. What was the name of this lure ?
I will give some hints and more details through out the day and I will give the answer tonight.

Crappie bite twice a day. 15 minutes before I get there and 10 minutes after I leave.
The two loudest sounds are a gun that goes bang when it is supposed to go click and one that goes click when it is supposed to go bang.

Another hint....this bait had 3 treble hooks attached in away that they could revolve....more hints coming later today
