The Enterprise Manufacturing Company, better known as Pflueger, was the first of the Big Five lure companies to be founded, and was the largest well into the twentieth century. Pflueger s popularity flourished because the company offered quality products that caught fish. Today, those products have endured the test of time and are highly collectible. This book details the Pflueger history from its founding in 1881 through 1952. Every lure and reel found in Pflueger catalogs and the literature are listed, described, and dated. Approximately 700 photos include not onlylures and reels, but also details of Pflueger product characteristics.

Discussions and pictures of catalogs, patents, and advertising are also included, bringing further understanding of The Pflueger Legacy. 2007 values.

Robert A. Slade, after collecting old fishing tackle since 1958 and contributing articles on old fishing lures for a collector magazine for several years started researching and writing books in the 1990's. He published the HISTORY & COLLECTIBLE FISHING TACKLE OF WISCONSIN in 1999 which sold 4,500 copies.
