Wadey, looks like this one's been hiding in mangrove mud. Nice find, I know what the model is, but I'm not going to steal Carl's thunder.

I remember walking into the Lure Shop in Cooktown in the late 80s and checking out the lure wall full of these little beauties. They came in all colours and depths and were an unforgettable sight for a young gun on his first trip up to FNQ. Bi reckon I lost a few of the in the mangroves in the Annan and Endeavor rivers. Back in the day they were deadly on the local Barra And Jacks...... Ah the memories. Gone are the days of walking into a tackle shop and the wall is covered with locally made timber lures. I guess they call it progress but I still treasure the memories........
