Heddon fishing lures go back to the 1890s when James Heddon was the one to invent the first artificial lures made of wood at that time. Within the first decade of the next century, the basis of the Heddon Company was put and the first Heddon fishing lures were produced by hand.

Initially all the accessories were produced in small workshops and there were no stores to sell them extensively. From the 1920s onwards, the business found distributors in Canada, and by 1950 Heddon fishing lures had gained an excellent name amongst fishermen.

The facilities manufactured approximately 12,000 every day, which is really quite remarkable given the technology. The year 1932 marked the appearance of the very first plastic Heddon fishing lures.

Back in those times plastic material was of not too high quality that’s the reason the fishing lures wouldn’t resist for a long time and underwent decay after a while. However, ever since then, Heddon fishing lures have become much more well-known and pretty widely appreciated.

These days, antique collectible fishing lures have grown much sought-after specifically should they be branded Heddon. A number of the antique collectible models and series of Heddon fishing lures which are really looked for by connoisseurs range from the 1898 Heddon frog, the 1907 Artistic Monnow, the 1910 Woodpecker 1001, the 1920 Midget Crab Wiggler, the 1923 Walton Feather tail, the Salt Water Special 500, the 1939 through 1949 Laguna Runt 10 and many, many more.

Countless unique designs can be admired on display at the Heddon museum opened on the factory premises. The very first factory from Dowagiac, Michigan remains functional, being even now run by the family. The museum indeed presents quite a few models and series of Heddon fishing lures and, additionally, it enhances the history meant to be preserved in Dowagiac.

The history of the Heddon family is also recorded and shown within this museum with the Heddon fishing lures and also the other equipment pieces such as ski poles, violin bows, box kites, radio antennae, club shafts and what ever else the family business took to in later years.
