The biggest problem with these baits is that over time the rubber would deteriorate causing hardening and brittleness. Finding intact baits from pre-1925 is exceptionally hard.<\/p><p>The company also offered to fix rubber collapsible fins to most of the Nature range of baits and these generally survive.<\/p><p>In 1922 Artificial King Rag Worm was introduce and patent 188898\/22 granted. This was sold in four sizes 12, 9, 6 and 4 1\/2 inches.<\/p><p>Another baits introduced in the 1923 catalogue was the Lola Millais bait which was made of a Rag Worm tail and OK Flexaloid body. It was available in four sizes 10, 9, 8, and 6 inches. I have never been able to find this bait.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-871b460 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"871b460\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-760ddfa elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"760ddfa\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"620\" src=\"https:\/\/percywadham.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/rubber-bait-1024x794.webp\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-6327\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/percywadham.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/rubber-bait-1024x794.webp 1024w, https:\/\/percywadham.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/rubber-bait-300x233.webp 300w, https:\/\/percywadham.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/rubber-bait-768x595.webp 768w, https:\/\/percywadham.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/rubber-bait-1536x1191.webp 1536w, https:\/\/percywadham.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/rubber-bait-2048x1588.webp 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e19f45a elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"e19f45a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Nature Rubber Baits from the 1911 catalogue.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nature Rubber Fish were introduced in the 1911 catalogue and over the years would expand in the sizes, colours and<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"colormag_page_container_layout":"default_layout","colormag_page_sidebar_layout":"default_layout","footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-6591","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/percywadham.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/6591","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/percywadham.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/percywadham.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/percywadham.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/percywadham.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6591"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"https:\/\/percywadham.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/6591\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6600,"href":"https:\/\/percywadham.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/6591\/revisions\/6600"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/percywadham.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6591"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
