Billy, check out Rack Raiders, I think made by Taylor Made or possibly a Pt. Macquarie maker? Can't recall the name though. They appear in LHOz.

Give it the hot pin test Billy, don't think TaylorMade lures are molded? The other maker I couldn't remember from Pt.Macquarie NSW came to me, it's Koolabung. Both makers were stocked in MO Tackle Coffs Harbour, probably still are.

Could this lure perhaps be by Peter Munt or Eric Ward or even a combination of the two? Based on its size maybe Eric carved and Peter painted? I seem to recall hearing that they worked together in the timber industry at some stage. Regards, Ken.
