Nice work Sam, how heavy are they? Gotta love the natural wood ones. By the way, what size t-shirt you wear? would like to send you an xmas gift for the wire and lures that came up. Got your address already from one of the guys in Andrew's group. Happy Holidays. ------------- Tis better to have hooked and lost than never to have hooked at all. |

Hi Kurt, These are 75g, currently I am only making them in this size but like all things I plan to make more in differing sizes/weights... I am partial to natural wooden lures, I like the look and with different species of timber different effects can be achieved with careful grain orientation. Put me down for a Large T-shirt, and thank you for the gift. Make sure to include your postal address Kurt, for posting test lures and any supplies you need. Enjoy your holidays as well and thank you. ------------- http://www.facebook.com/pages/Reel-Appeal-Lures/300309486704362 |

No footage as of yet Manoa, Ben has cast a few and has been picking up big rats on them...These are the GEN I, I have plans for further refinement that will be seen in the GEN II. The bait below I have been working on for a while as a collective effort between RAL and Nomad... Ben wanted a bait to swim singles as my other stick baits swim best with trebles. Nearly there with the lure, but here's a recent photo courtesy of Nomad NZ...It's swimming good   ------------- http://www.facebook.com/pages/Reel-Appeal-Lures/300309486704362 |
