How rare are these lures

Post image

I was cleaning my dads basement and happen to come across these. Do you think they will still hit and for what kind of fish? Thank you

I use Swedish pimples ice fishing. They still sell them. I’m not sure about the other one.

Sweedish Pimple has been around for ever. Pretty good for trout and salmon. Not familiar with the other one, but should work as a jigging spoon for numerous species.
