Creek Chub 1400 Big Creek Bug Wiggler

 

The #1400 Big Creek Bug Wiggler was first introduced by Creek Chub Bait Company in 1924 and was made until around 1932. CCBC #1400 Big Creek Bug Wigglers were 2 1/2" long compared to their smaller counter parts. They were advertised as having only 3 catalogued colors but special order colors were also done by request.

 

Creek Chub Big Creek Bug Wiggler lures have been found in many colors! Some CCBCO boxes have end labels with the color names spelled out. Others are simply stamped with a code. Here is a color chart to help you discover what color your Big Creek Bug Wiggler is.
