Where to find these Lures?

They're called a Ronnie Bird. Haven't seen them on the shelf for several years.

Ronnie Bird does sound kind of familiar? I will try and google it and I only live a few miles from JR's so I'll check there as well. Thanks for the ideas. I used to have three of them but lost one to a nice big eye one day. The Blue one is what I caught my 35.5"inch Laker on earlier this winter. I need to find more of them! frown

Yup..that is the "Ronnie Bird", I believe the Lindner's were behind the Ronnie Bird...Ron Lindner specifically...I could be wrong?

I remember when they came out first and were only available through In-Fisherman by mail order? There was a lure makes also by the name of Ronnie Bird...he may be the guy behind it too? Not certain?

The "Stop Sign" lure is the same basic body, just no wings to add the clacking sound and added flash.

Good lure, done very well with them on sumo perch and walleye too.

"Woodland Resort" at Devils Lake ND had them last time I was in there, they may still have some on the pegs in there bait shop.

Well I think that I am SOL as Ronnie Bird Lures is out of business and their Web site says "Maybe for sale". The only things I could find on them on the web were a few old post from other fishing sites looking for them which were dated back in 2002-03. The other two lure brands listed above make something that looks like a rocker lure with wings so maybe they will work as well? Now I'm not sure if I keep trying to fish with them and chance losing them, or hold on to them and try and sell them in a few years on one of the auction sites for $25 bucks each!! crylaugh

The lures was invented in Chenango forks NY, I just purchased the company and they will be made again !

    • got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out
    • By The way that didn't work either!! Screw it I'll just use the cellular. 
    • It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
