    Weird New Sonic
Lure Caught
Fish Like Crazy!
By Lyman Walton, Co-Inventor
As Told to Paul Stag, The Weekend Fisherman
Think of it! My new VIBRATING LURE gives loud, GUR
GLING, SPLASHING, BUBBLING sounds as you skitter it
along the surface of the water! Sends out up to 200 vibrations
every minute underneath that water! Looks COMPLETELY
UNLIKE ANYTHING THAT ANY FRESH WATER FISH
HAS SEEN BEFORE.
And has already used this weird sight and weird sound and
weird sonic vibrations in one of its very first Summer trials
to lure fish into attacking it so savagely that they actually knocked
it out of the water. Hauled in trout, bass, muskie, walleye, and
pike, even when other lures had caught little or no fish right next
to it! H ere's why
same time! Fifty seventy ninety
fish are caught and released! People
along the shore stop to watch the spec
tacle !
In one short hour, we have caught and
released 120 fish! All WITH the very
same weird little lure that can go to work
for you next week, without your risking
a penny 1
WHAT'S THE SECRET?
UNDERWATER SONIC
VIBRATIONS!
Why did this bat-shaped lure catch fish
by the strin,ger-full even after ordi
nary lures, and natural bait have caught
little or nothing? For this simple rea
son Because this lure gives off unique
GURGLING, BUBBLING, SPLASH
ING SURFACE NOISES plus up to
200 sonic vibrations every minute under
neath that water that I believe FISH
FIND IRRESISTIBLE!
Yes ! I am certain that sonic pulsations
are the answer to every fisherman's
prayer. I have studied the Navy Fish
Biologist reports about the sounds fish
make between themselves in the water!
I have seen fish follow the propellers of
a boat as though they were hypnotized
by the sound!
And I have always believed that if I
could take those gurgling, bubbling,
splashing surface sounds and under
water vibrations that actually seemed
to CALL FISH TO THEM and build
that sound into a "Vibrating Lure" then
itcould haul irreye-popping-cntclres, even
where ordinary lures had cautrht little or
nothing at all! Even- in hard-fished
waters where the wise old fish run away
from ordinary lures!
JUST READ THESE FISH-CATCHING
ACHIEVEMENTS!
TRY IT AT OUR RISK!
Yes ! Research showed me that lures, like
fish, create Sonic Vibrations in the water
by their movements! So I have designed
a lure that I estimate FLUTTERS
THROUGH THAT WATER UP TO 200
TIMES A MINUTE! Wing-shaped
bat-like JERKING AND FLUTTER
ING MADLY THROUGH THAT
CAUGHT! 120 FISH
- IN ONE HOUR!
Yes! Imagine that YOU were there at
Cattail Lake, Illinois, on August 20,
1961. A hot summer day I A beautiful
stream-fed pond 90 by 60 feet wide!
Fishermen trying lures, tlies, natural
bait! But despite the fact that this is a
stocked trout farm with no limit, there
is only an occasional strike. It looks like
a wasted day !
And then, three die-hard friends de
cide to try their luck with me! We start
to cast from the edge of the water. At
the end of our lines is an ENTIRELY
DIFFERENT LURE a weird little
metal monster that casts like a bullet,
and flutters back through the water like
a drowning bat I
EVEN EXPERIENCED FISHERMEN
WATCHED IN AMAZEMENT!
Almost at once THAT QUIET WATER
EXPLODES INTO ACTION! The first
strike causes a Bhout of excitement I And
then a second strike! A third, fourth,
sixth, seventh, eighth! Beautiful rain
bows and browns still shimmering from
the water being pulled in at the rate
of more than one every minute !
Now the water is almost exploding
witn fish striking! Sometimes four and
five trout savagely attack one lure at the

THIS IS AN ARTIST'S CONCEPTION OF THE VIBRA-BAT LURE AND IT'S SONIC
lEFFECT UNDER WATER! I believe It to be irresistible to fish! Try it entirely at our risk!
WATER SENDING OUT IRRESIS
TIBLE SONIC WA VES GURGLING,
SPLASHING, BUBBLING SURFACE
SOUNDS THAT TRAVEL THROUGH
WATER IN EVERY DIRECTION, AT
THE RATE OF 4,760 FEET EVERY
SECOND, THE ACTUAL SPEED OF
SOUND UNDER WATER!
No wonder this "VIBRA-BAT" lure
caught a 10 pound 7 ounce Northern
on one of its first tests only momenta
after it hit the water hauled in six
bass in sixty minutes in another test, all
2lk pounds or larger pulled in perch
by the dozens in a third test at Belmont
Harbor, Illinois, even after live bait and
lures had scarcely a strike, and CON
TINUED to land so many fish, so quickly,
THAT FISHERMEN WATCHED IN
AMAZEMENT!
No wonder our tests show this revolu
tionary new lure hauls in trout, bass,
muskie, walleye, pike, salmon and other
fresh water fish even in hard fished
waters produces strikes even when
other fishermen alongside it are going
almost unrewarded!

Harrison Industries has told on this page
the amazing story of the VIBRA-BAT as
related to us by Lyman Walton.
We have received signed statements from
Lyman Walton and other fishermen that
these facts are correct.
Incidentally the words "Gurgling
Splashing Bubbling" are Walton's par

description of this sound. But you will agree
on its amazing results, or your money back!
