Good question John, I will be having a good look through my Reidy's lures when I finally find where the box with them in it is located!


Cheers, Tony

For the love of Fishing Lures.

The Amazon and Mitey Mite moulds are still around. I recently purchased some from 'Frenchie" in Darwin. He owns "The Tackle Box" which is obviously a tackle shop up here.

Actually fished with a mate up here in December last year and his biggest barra went to another out of date Reidy's lure. Aqua Rat. There is a rumour that they may be bringing these back into production.
Photo attached. The main pic made it to the front cover of the February, 2011 NT Fish and Boat.

Sure did. I heard the fish 'boof' the lure underwater before Larry came up tight to it. From the sound, I knew it was a good fish.
