Originally priced at $30, a barrel of pork oil filled with tires, an idea transformed into what is now Arkie Lures Inc. in the early 1960s. Founded by Bob Carnes, Arkie Lures soon transformed the Bass Jig market. Is today. At the time, a Bass jig consisted only of a banana head jig head, deer or squirrel hair tied to it, and a pork trailer. Jigger fishing is a "local" thing, and everyone has their own temptations to stay local. Bob was always trying to make himself a better fisherman, always looking to make a better bass jig. After several attempts, Bob made his first "balance" fixture head. Virtually every bass jig on the market today comes from Bob's first production jig.
