Thats Awesome. Thanks Lethal.
Aotealures are our stickbaits. Myself & a mate have been developing them for the last couple of years. We are about to put them In a couple of shops for this season. I will be posting once they're out there.

Alan Stormie doesn't make them commercially just has a few spares to sell. Posts like that will just encourage some idiot to complain

A group of my friends sell NZ jigs here and over in oz. They have a website but it's currently offline as they are overhauling it and rebranding as their jigs are getting more popular overseas. They will be re-launching soon.
