I have an assortment of NOS Attack Lures QLD.
I have some packaged some unpackaged and even blanks that never made it to paint stage.

These were hand crafted and assembled by Barry Neat.

These are early to mid 90's made from his home on Bribie Island. They were sold in a few stores but not on a large scale obviously.

Hi Peter Munt here.
I owned the copy lathe with Barry Neat and I totally own the pattern for the lure that Barry and I made for Attack Lures

The top lure, I am certain was one originally sold by Greg Mundt, he copied my Cania Bug. My partner Barry Neat produced them for Greg and when Greg no longer traded in lures Barry gave them to his Stepson to sell through his tackle shop as Attack Lure model. The other two designs are mine. Once again when I decided not to sell those models anymore Barry produced them for his stepson who sold them under the Attack banner.

Thanks for the update, Cania Bug copy interesting. Still would be nice to know who repainted.

OK I picked up some of these lure blanks recently. I bought them off a bloke that bought the contents of a tackle shop 2 years ago. This tackle shop closed about 20 years ago and was in Maryborough. Just confirming that these are blank Attack lures as they are very close to the styles shown here.

Thanks for that confirmation Peter. They are all very exact so I thought they came from a lathe and thought they were most likely off your machine

Wonder who did the repaints on the ones I found? Only kept the Cania Bug copy and one other. The rest I gave away at the Expo.
