I have always had a thing for black lures since I started collecting.
Just wondering if people know who made this beautiful lure? |

Yes, it is a Dempster...late 80's. I call these guys 'fat boys' because of the wide body. These are not as common as his normal minnows.
It has had some work done on it. Shouldn't be too hard to guess who painted it. |

Nice work Gary
Fat-boys sounds the right name for this style Dempster steiny - the bigger ones in this style are a fair chunk of lure! |

Cheers, Tony
For the love of Fishing Lures. |
