CASTING AND TROLLING BAITS 



"Dowagiac" Patents. 



1 — Hooks attached so as not to mar the body of the bait nor to tangle into each other. 

 2 — All trebles instantly detachable. 



Note especially the glistening white belly and the beautiful rainbow finish of the back. 



It takes several years to learn to make a casting minnow right and we have 

 arrived at the "know how" stage of the art. The manufacturers of "Dowagiac" baits are 

 practical bait casters of long experience among nearly all the species of game fish in North Ameri- 

 can waters. Every detail of a casting bait has been carefully wrought into the finished product. 



Ask you dealer to show you the "Dowagiac" bait or send direct to us for fully descriptive 

 circular with pointers on practical bait casting.
