Had this one up a few years ago and no one seemed to have to much on it
However I was just browsing Ebay and I noticed a Rare Pipeline George Dempster on their with a few similarities.
I am not any type of authority on any of these and the markings under the bib appear to be deliberate either J L or possibly L back to front L
Open for suggestions, Lure Length 2 Cm





Cheers Kimo

The only JL lure maker I know of is John Langley of Kyogle NSW. He made generally Bass/Cod style lures, but may have delved into lures for bigger game. Check-out LureHubOz there's a listing for him there.

Thanks Seaweed I will take a look
I am not sure that the lettering is JL or actually what it is.
Just can`t see it being put there without significance.
Thanks Kimo

Don't recognise it as one of John's 'Stalker Lures". He did make a few styles of jewfish lures about 15 cm long, but these were more then twice as thick as this lure.

I don`t think it is a stalker Jewfish lure not that I am any authority on it but did not look like any on the link
This is the Picture of the Lure on Ebay I was comparing it with



I am still uncertain of the significance of the lettering under the bib or if they are even letters ?

For my money Kimo, that Ebay lure is a Dempster.
