Cranky gave me this when I visited him last week. Can't remember where he found, is timber with twisted wire eyelets, recessed eyes which are metallic stickers.
Any clues appreciated. Seaweed. |

Have been given a clue on FB to being a maker from Tamworth NSW, who worked at Kensell's Holden. Will give them a buzz tomorrow, see if I can get a name, watch this space.

Lure has been positively ID'd by the maker himself, Mr. John Lye of Tamworth NSW, John stated made around 15-20yrs. ago.
Tony, Cranky didn't know where or when he acquired, probably thought I had more time to investigate, he might want it back now lol. |
