Collected these hand mades and flopy copy's from friend of Eddie Brooks who is now in a Ballina nursing home aged well into his 80's with advanced dementia.

The flopy copys actually swim very well...

Note the horizontal tow eye and tail hanger bindings on the minnows and the flopy.

Little or no other info is known, but trying to track down Eddys son.

meantime - enjoy
