On the 1st November the first run of the "Due West Drought Relief" lures hit the shelves. These 75mm Jerkbaits were specifically designed with Yellowbelly(plus other natives) in mind and also have the added benefit that $5 from every lure sold is being donated by Paul and Cheryl to help a farming family out West who are doing it tough due to the current drought conditions. For me , this is a very worthy project and I commend Paul and Cheryl for their thoughtfulness. I was only too happy to support this initiative and as a bonus I've ended up with some of the best finished lures that I have ever seen. The following photo shows my selection from the spectacular full range of 10 colour patterns that are available.
Regards, Col |

I'm also still waiting for mine.
I'm guessing road closures down the East Coast have played a part... I thought I was picking them up at the post office yesterday but it ended up being beer. Not a total loss! |

My lures arrived today also, finish is amazing!
Ducks mine are numbered 1 on the cards and etched on the bibs, I think this indicates the first run of Due West lures. I intended to fish mine also but they look too good to use!
