Anthony's lures can be roughly divided into two broad time categories. Firstly, those that were made in the late 80's and early 90's, and those that were made post 2011 when Anthony recommenced production.
The fact that Anthony's lures are crafted entirely by hand to his exacting standards has meant that production numbers have been quite limited due to time constraints, making them not that easy to come by. Below I have shared some photos of the ones that I have been fortunate enough to find and hope that others may follow suite and add their own images to help develop a photographic reference of Anthony's brilliant creations for all to appreciate and enjoy. Regards, Col Un-named prototype(that became the inspiration for the "Molly") and a "DT Minnow" "Shrimp" Three "Perch" and a "DT Minnow" Two "Sliders" and a "Longtail" prototype "Duck Rukus" Large and small "Crays" "Crays" Boxed sets of "Crays" and "Coral Trout" "Cannibals" "Cod Cannibals" "Barra Cannibals" "The Pod" "Coral Trout" and "Pods" "Jack Magic" 77mm "Jack Magic" 77mm and 88mm "Wobby", Prawn", "Toebitter", "Slider" and "Arc Perch" "Slim Beauties" 4", 5" and 6" |

Here is some special Lures Barney made to me a couple off years ago. The little Trout was in a battle with a Tree. It went 2-1 as i got the Lure back, but the Tree kept some off the bib Have to try replace it so I can catch some more Fish on it. |

Thanks Tony and Per for your additions to this reference list. I would love to see any others that people may have - the more the better.
I was fortunate enough to pick up a few new "Jack Magic" lures earlier in the year and will share them below. As with all of Anthony's lures I consider them to be works of art but was particularly taken with the Baby Jack pattern, perfect in every detail right down to the blue "Adam Ant" face stripes. What a talent! Enjoy, Col Jack Magic(77mm) - Red Jack, Blue Stripey and Baby Jack. |

After a productive Expo weekend I can now add 3 additional Deep River models to this reference list: a sweet little 55mm "Perchette", a 12cm "Mugil Joint" and a 6cm "Rhino Bass" surface lure. All three were done in very limited numbers so I was particularly pleased to add them to my collection.
Regards, Col |

That rhino bass surface lure is cool, but how good is that for lateral thinking with the set up of the rear treble on the jointed model?
