None of mine - yet. I heard about a bloke down there that used to make lures. Does / or did he also make lead slugs for tailor as I bought these at the markets there and was hinted that it may be the same bloke.

Yeah Gary, was thinking the same. Tow point, eyelets, shape and pattern look the same, mine could be later if/when he perfected his paint and eyes maybe? Thanks for input.

I had a conversation with Bob Burgess today and he is still making a few lures. He is staying and fishing here atm. In his tackle tray I noticed Deception Feral cat and minnow styles. 84 now and still going strong.
They lived in Blacktown Sydney and were members of the CBs fishing club. They moved to Wombah 2006 and lived across the road from Barrie Stark ,who made beaut little bass lures and made and repaired rods. Barrie died 2012.
