A customer landed in my shop with a small bag of nude Polyurethane moulded lures that he had received of a friend of a friend so I swapped him for some painted one,s , of mine
Any ideas who these might have been making them
The gate into the body is rectangular 2mm wide and 9mm long so I don't think they were moulded by Allan
The body is 72mm LONG 24.75mm at it's widest,
18.3 at it's thickest spot right behind the front treble the bib is 32mm wide 41mm from the nose of the body and 1.6mm thick with an blunt ogave shape

Thank's everyone
The bodies are over 3 years old, the adhesive paper has hardened and is stuck onto the polycarbonate I had this happen to me a few years back with some old PC I found degreaser removes it without smoking up the bib

I kept 5 aside just in case someone comes up with an original color scheme, just hope I'm not biting off more than I paint

It's not all me Martin I am using a new clear, this stuff self levels like it's magnetic dose not thin on hard edges. Hardens in 30 min pot life of 2 hours if put in a fridge at 10 deg C 8 hours, no rotating either during curing

I reckon you are spot on with the species Mick. Wish I could ID the original maker I Painted 20 and sent them to a friend to unload I only kept 5 to paint in their original colors if and when there identified. I will put your name on one if you want.

No mick I have been asking around I showed it around the lure expo, all to no avail it's turning into a real who done it...
The thing is some one went to a lot of trouble to make 4 plus moulds judging by mould wittness marks
