I am hoping someone could please help me know more about these lures i cannot find them anywhere on here.They where made of a plastic of some kind, not sure who made them but they all had "ambush lures" signed under the tail section.
I do have one left but the other was stolen by a bass it used to catch some thumpers! Hope someone can help thanks Steve |

Here's a few Steve, they were all moulded poly foam when in production. Originally made by Steve Muchow of Wellington Point, he moved to Beaudesert later on and stopped production in1995. Brad |

Your Joking ! Ive lived in Beaudesert since 1989, My great uncle had Arthy's toys and gifts in the main street of town and he gave me these 2 for a birthday when i was only 8. Not long after they retired and closed the shop.
Bloody minds boggling Thanks Brad Steve |

If i said i was 8 a "few years after" could have been quite a few
Sorry about that, I talk to Keith as much as i can and fish with one of his sons nearly every week. I havent got a very good grasp of this timeline thing. Did you know Keith well ? I have to get a blank to him for my blackfish rod soon. Steve |

Are you still producing those lures Steve? I was given two small ones by Alan Sloman on the weekend as I'd spotted them in his tacklebox.
