I'm lucky to have three of Harvey's lures, while travelling north several years ago, and stopping at Cardwell, I visited the tackle shop ( no longer there). The owner Ramah Manning showed me his collection of Harvey Lowe lures. Asked if he wanted to trade for a couple of Seaweed Yabby lures, he was keen and we did a deal. I was there to visit Westy Moller at the local nursing home, later I bumped into David Murphy who lived across the road from Vic McCristal before he also moved to the nursing home. On his passing, his sister sold the house to Harvey. Am I to believe that Harvey has passed away? He would've been well into his 80's and was a good friend of Billy Stringer. Sad to hear.
Regards, Seaweed.
"Always Merry and Bright"
