Oops, right you are about the Haggis Chris! I just spent two hours gathering all my Fugly lures together and the prototype Haggis was in the very last lot I found! Shocked



Dunno about too many lures, although I do have too little memory Embarrassed  LOL  I do remember now that I was over the moon when the parcel arrived, how cool that I got to be surprised a second time Big smile

Not put out at all Chris, putting in time getting my lures sorted out better is a very high priority and something I've been looking forwards to for ages, you just helped give me the incentive to get out there today and get started - thank you Cool

I had great fun, part of that time was spent going through a few other boxes too, boy do I need some display cabinets so I can enjoy these things more! There's lots of other cool lures of yours I was drooling over, this pic doesn't do them justice although here's a glimpse now that they are semi-organised (still a box or two of yours I need to find though I think) Confused LOL

Top row second section from right is Funky Haggis' - including the very cool "Dalmation" Big smile



ooohhhh presents, goody! Big smile
Cheers, Tony

When it's finished and floats or better still suspends (in fresh - yes we have had this freshwater / saltwater/temperature suspending conversation before) it will slay the fish.A little light colouring on the back and LOOOOK OUUUUT
