A-900 Scooter (Buck & Bawl JR.)64 viewsThe first lure I have seen from Smithwick using this blank was stamped "My Pet". It was from the late 1950's. During the same time period they used this blank with a flat belly and it was called a "Scooter". This Scooter was produced to a least 1960 and perhaps for a few more years. The earliest chart I have on the Buck & Bawl Jr. is 1963 and it has one spinner on the rear. It shows up like this again in: 1965,late 1960's. By 1972 it is shown with spinners on both front and rear and stays this way into the 1990's. from the 1977 chart to the 1990's we have the F-1100 Buck & Bawl Jr. with two spinners and the A-900 lure with one spinner called the Scooter although the lure itself is stamped Buck & Bawl Jr. I do not have any of the charts for the 1973, 1974, 1975, 1976. So the Scooter using the Buck & Bawl body with one spinner may have emerged sooner than 1977. This lure comes in the shrink wrap box and is in color #4 Green Minnow.Aug 28, 2009

MY Pet - 2nd version86 viewsThis is an old lure which has the heavier hardware and small pointed spinners front and rear. The Buck & Bawl Jr. uses the large pointed spinners. The wood body is 2" long and has the shape of the Buck n Bawl Jr. You can see a name stamped on it. You can see ..My Pet - ... and with a maginfying glass you can just make out...Pet... So, It appears we have a 2nd version of the My Pet lure. This one must have come out ofter version one of the My Pet was discontinued. It carrried the My Pet name and was later changed to Buck & Bawl Jr.Another collector also has one and the name is clearly stamped MY PET. It is gold scale color.May 24, 2008

The Buck and Bawl jr. initially had only one rear spinner up to at least 1965. By the early 1970's ? it has two spinners. In 1977 it continues with two spinners and the Buck and Bawl with one spinner is now available again but is called by the old name and number of the A-900 Scooter.
