Hidden away in an old FNQ tackle box on the Atherton Tablelands for years, these seven early examples of Eric's craftsmanship have come to light.
The blue lure, bottom right, could in fact be unique, a 'bibless weighted minnow'. The yellow one immediately above it has a pointed nosed profile, again unique, note the end-on shots.
The others are early painted examples of minnows and three different sizes of chin-minnows.
Seaweed.

Tony,
 
Fantastic bibless lure.
 
The Deep Diver Tiger is very uncommon but not quite unique.
 
Cheers, Jim

Unfortunately not mine, Bruce Moller found these while visiting an old friend of his father Westy.
More may be out there, Bruce has now caught the bug LOL.
