  First Sparrow made.
  Red striped on is a Taka
  Last photo is Brian's work over the last 4 years.
 Bryan Power's work is always top class.

Very nice lot there deb nice work as always Brian

The Sparrow looks great and looks like Trevor's carving tips helped on that one    I mean that with respect only , I hope you make heaps of them , IDE love one & I'm sure they would work nicely on a few species

If you ever make a few mini sparrow's please make me a black & yellow one Brian

Brian and I actually see the results with these lures. Bryan comes out to the dam and rivers regularly and puts them to the test. That big Yabbie swims to 22'. It's a No1 and he swum it.  Debbie D.

Very nice Bryan, they all look great and knowing how much of a perfectionist you are they would all catch fish. You are a true craftsman. That orange / green flame in the first photo, and the green fish with the fins in the second - outstandingClap

you don't havta be pretty to fish

Rick the mini is called  MARROW  and the one in between is ARROW  and the large is the SPARROW, I think you`ll be able to work where the name/names come from, there is a marrow in one of the pictures , cheers Bryan.

Here are more examples of Bryan's work. Every time he comes to Glenlyon I take photos of his lures before he hits the water.

Bryan called in to Glenlyon Dam and allowed me to photograph his tackleboxes. Some gems in there. Check out the chamo lures.

Yes Deb, all beautiful work, I was lucky to meet up with Brian recently and eyeball some of these--attention to detail is second to none.
Thanks for posting these pics.

Bryan Power visited yesterday and delivered my completed lure set that was displayed at the expo un finished. We thought it might be boring all 50 in the same colour so instead had 3 varients underneath.

I had bought a silky oak and laminate cabinet from Bill Horsnell to display them in but had no room in my car to bring it home from the expo. That's why Bryan delivered it on his way to a river trip down the Dumaresq R with Lead Lure, Garra and some local boys.   Debbie D

Having got a yellow and black set  I feel a bit like it was asking Mozart to play Happy Birthday.

They are still awesome.
