Dave,
The frog Wonder Wobbler was actually made by Wonder Lures in Melbourne. John Nowack Snr was the owner, now dec. The Wonder Wobbler lives on now made by his son on the Gold Coast, same guy who makes Lazer Lure slugs.

Halco did make a copy as did several other makers, like Alpha (MB Wragg & Coy), SureStrike, and Sydenham.

Thanks for the info Darb. I never really looked at the manufacturer, just always associated the wobbler with Halco, not sure why.

Cheers,
Dave.

Barry
Were Halco small wobbler ever made in brass or red and while stripes but without names?

Wonder lures certainly made Brass and Copper types but not sure about the other.Most Wonder Wobblers have a stamp oon them.
