Williams Wabler contest
Got an email this morning saying I was 1 of 10 winners of a sequentially numbered collecters set for their 100th anniversary. I remember doing an entry for this last year, so if true and I do receive this I will be extremely happy as I have always loved their products. Will keep you folks updated.

You’re lucky to have the gear you already have. Some people wish they had stuff as nice as the stuff you think isn’t good enough. - Bill Heavey

Of the thousands of bait choices out there on the market and I could only choose 2 or 3 for my tackle box, the Williams Wabler would be my second choice---right after jigs.

Hi smallgamer
The set I think I won was never for sale. It is 7 different sizes from W10-W70 all 24 carat gold plated in what looks like a wooden display box. I actually think I entered my ballot from here on the OOD site. WLYK when/if I receive it.

Sounds good.

Just picked up my set of 7 Williams Wablers as no one was home to sign for the package when it came to the door, they look great!
They come in a hinged pine box with 5 compartments that is stamped #143/175 on the inside, and the lures each have the 1916-2016 anniversary date stamped in them to commemorate the milestone. As well, a personalized COA was in the package signed by both the President of the company and the V.P. of Marketing, a nice touch I thought.
I never knew they made them as small as 1" and 1 1/4", those little ones are really unique. The largest spoon is 4" long and all are set on black foam. This to me is an awesome set that will never see the water, so it's just as well they have split rings but no hooks on them.
They also sent 2 catalogues of their complete 2017 lineup for Williams as well as Brecks lures which was a welcome surprise, although I will probably end up spending too much on an order this spring.
Sorry no pics right now as my game cams don't do them justice and the boss isn't around with her cam. I'll try to get some pics posted over the weekend.
