Came across these today

An Australian Floppie

Tried the search engine maybe not covered previously.

Have no idea on the age.

Anybody have anymore info.

I was told made from Balsa
 

 I think Nicho made a reference to the maker when he did some Floppy styled lures.


Regards John

Gee Dave, I wouldn't have thought cockies would eat a synthetic, you sure they're not balsa.
I do know the cockies love cork rod grips, the bastards have eaten the grip on my Loomis LOL.
