New For This Year ...Pink Bubble Gum, Hot Flash Pink, Hot Flash Yellow, Sunrise/Copper
As the popularity of the original designs of Thomas Spinning Lures continues to grow so does the demand for new colors and finishes. We’ve added smarter eyes, dramatic, vibrant colors and even reflective flecks to some of our already popular selections. Keeping up with the changes fisherman require takes a lot of work on our part, but when we get the cards and letters from fishermen all over the world tell-ing how Thomas Lures out-fish most of everything they’ve used before, it makes us work even harder. Yes, we’re still a privately-owned small company with a handful of dedi-cated employees who are still providing American made, quality fishing lures at reasonable prices. Our operation is still in the same town and same buildings where the company started more than 60 years ago. Send us your photo of fish caught with a Thomas lure and we may use it on our next brochure. Contact us with questions or comments, and thank you for using Thomas Lures.
Sincerely,
Peter R. Ridd, President

In the earliest days of America, rods, reels and assorted parapherna-lia were imported from Europe as indicated in the letter of August 1737 when William Penn’s daughter Margaret Penn Freame wrote to her brother in London, “…my chief Amusement this summer has been Fish-ing. I therefore request the favor of you when a Leisure Hour will admit, you will buy for me a Rod and Reel with strong good Lines and assortment of hooks the best sort…” While some very earlyThomas Lures were fashioned after success-ful European designs, all Thomas Lures have always been manufactured in the United States. We are proud of our traditions, and we are sure that you will not find a better crafted fishing lure manufactured abroad or in America.
“If you don’t catch them on Thomas,they aren’t biting.” B.L.G. Forsyth, MO.
“I have been fishing with your lures for over 25 years and would like to thank you for your no-non-sense, just fish-catching lures.” D.K. Redmond, WA.
“...the best damn lures I have ever used.” B.R. Lake Havasu City, AZ
“I’ve had such good luck fishing these lures for over 30 years. They are simply the best.” T.P. West Sufield, CT
“...most productive lures in my tackle box!” A.G. East Longmeadow, MA
“Your Eel lure is one of the best lures in my tackle box. I have caught just about anything that swims in Maine’s fresh waters.” S.E.L. South Berwick, ME
“We traveled deep into several lakes in Quebec, far from stores, traffic and telephones. Everyone thought they were well-stocked in the lure department. After several days of fishing, very few fish to show for our efforts, and limited time left. I decided to do some experimenting with the many lures in my tackle boxes. The first lure out for use was your E.P. Spinn lure. I tied it on and cast it out to a likely looking spot. WHAM!!! First cast and I tied into the biggest trout of the trip! After the next cast I knew the first wasn’t a freak because I caught another beautiful trout. Unbelievable! My friends were going crazy ....luckily I brought plenty of leaders or I may have been drowned on the spot. We all caught many fish those last two days thanks to your fantastic lure. You certainly saved our trip and helped make some lasting memories to boot. ...A loyal fan forever!” G.E.J. New Bloomfield, PA
