Good on you Chris for putting out some very affordable stickbaits for the NZ fisherman. Awesome range of colours and models well suited to NZ kings. Guess you can't really complain about others ripping off lure designs now.

When have I complained about lure rip offs?  Nobody seems to be slightly bit concerned for intellectual property these days and that is well supported by the customers who flock to buy.
 
I buy the Starwalker from the ORIGINAL manufacturer and I believe it is their original design, therefore no rip off.  
give it death!

All i know is they are very very nice lures. Chris, the floating pinkie I had was a smaller one, will you be doing the floating ones in that larger size (same as the larger sinking one) as well?

Yes, the floating lures will be in the larger size.
 
There are 2 sizes - 160mm and 180mm.
There are floating and sinking versions in both these sizes.

Lures are 160 and 180mm in both sinking and floating.  Weights are 60g, 100g for floating and 90g, 130g for sinking and the lures come unrigged.  Lures are plastic with a fantastic holographic finish that has a heavy protective clear coating.
 
This is the lure that Titahi caught his Stripie with last summer.
 
Prices from $45.
 
Kahawai
 
Pilchard
 
THIS ONE (above)
But i really think all of the top 3 ones are pretty bloody good.
 
Kohuru
 
rest of the colours -
Barbie
 
Blue Pink
 
Purple
 
Green Mackerel
this Green Mack is Titahi's marlin slayer.  Nice Thumbs Up

sorry for dragging up these old posts but was wondering if whether the sinking Starwalker will troll okay? I presume the floating would be no good for that.
Is the sinking or floating easier to get a good action out of with casting/retrival for a newbie to stickbaits like me?
like the look of the Kahawhai or the Kohuru. nice.
