Acme Lures
For over five decades, fishermen have equated the name Acme with quality in
metal fishing lures; quality of design, components and finish. Our motto
"designed to catch fish, not fishermen" is as true today as when our company
was started by Art Lavallee in 1950. All Acme lures are extensively
field-tested by expert fishermen. When we recommend a specific lure for trout,
bass, pike or walleye, it will catch them.

Lindy
Legendary Fishing Tackle
Today, the Company is known as "the walleye tackle company", and is credited
with developing many of the walleye lures and methods that dominate the
industry. Since its introduction in 1968, an estimated 55 million Lindy Rigs
have been purchased by walleye fishermen. That number, while impressive, is
probably equaled by the Company's Red Devil and Little Joe Spinners and
Fuzz-E-Grub Jigs. The Lindy Rig, Red Devil Spinner, and Fuzz-E-Grub are three
of the most copied lures available to walleye fishermen.
