Nice work Lyonel that's a corker. I saw an offer for it on FB. I recommend not selling it for that. It's worth just a tad more

Cheers,

Danny.

I've heard Paul is forgetful, however forgetting to put eyes on a lure? Well that's just another level again

Cheers,

Danny.

Hey Lyonel,

Absolutely no idea. It's the very first one I've seen. I have a nipper with the eyes on the underside like a Kad, but that's the extent of my Deceptions with eyes missing from where they usually are.

Cheers,

Danny.

So it's a 6 eyed Shrimp then Steiny. They're not rare at all. Heaps of them around

Cheers,

Danny.

Must be rare, Rob mentioned on Facebook he's never seen one like that.

It wasn't as popular as some of the other patterns, but I did do a fair few of these

Yeah would have liked that one Paul. First one I'd seen. Is there a chance the few you made were a custom order and didn't end up on shelves? Would have expected to have come across another by now if they were in stores.

Cheers,

Danny.

No wasn't a custom order Danny, I do remember painting them and I did a fair few at the time, over several batches. The no eyes thing is a bit different though, don't know what I (eye) was thinking? I thought I mainly put red/black eyes on them to be honest?
