I acquired this beauty yesterday and quickly PMed Shane to verify it as his. Shane rang me today to tell me the story of this lure. 24 lures were made to be sold thru Ronnie Ross's Barber shop in Tenterfield 1985-86 as Shane's first commercial lures and check out the signature and the V on the bib. A good cod lure and I'll treasure it Shane.

Great score Deb.
Thanx too, Shane, for the little history lesson. Yep, the Bro in Law certainly had the TOUCH! That Brown would have been SPECTACULAR over Yellow or Gold! |

Mal, Brett still has a lot to offer the world, his hand skills are extremely good and can turn them to anything ,a number of years ago RM Williams showed him how to make stock whips and so he went about putting his own style to them and sold a quality product to the WORLD , his class still continues today on a few lures that he makes for pleasure .

Shame Murphy, it's John Toomey here. Debbie showed me this lure a couple of days ago and I was quite disappointed to see that the paint was peeling of the bib.

Thanks Shane, good to catch up. I might take a couple of pictures tomorrow. Not sure what is left. Maybe my collection of lures might be of some interest. I've not looked around on here so I don't know if I have anything of interest or not?John
