Vintage Surf Fishing Lures & Memorabilia

HELLO AND WELCOME

The Website you are about to enter is about "Striped Bass" and the

"Saltwater Lures" that were used to pursue them during the 1940's-1960's. This period in time is often referred to by surf fishermen, as the

"Golden Age Of Surf Fishing."

Tom Clayton from the East Coast of

New Jersey (1952-2019) was an Avid Striped Bass Fisherman and a long time collector of antique saltwater surf fishing tackle. Tom Specialized in

"New England Striped Bass Lures."

 

As Tom's Son, I would like to share with you a fraction of Tom's extensive knowledge. An avid fisherman myself,

I look forward to keeping my father's traditions alive. 

 

Thanks for Visiting,

 

Tel Clayton
