Murphys, clure, two unknowns are they wild rivers? Two more unknowns, I was told the larger bleeding mullet came from Weipa. Thanks in advance.

Gavin, If you look at the belly on that bigger bleeding mullet one, you should see a small red dot. It looks like a Keith Boys lure, the twist ties on the hooks is also a clue. I don't know about the small one with stick on eyes but you are right with the others.
Cheers,

Gavin

Hi Gavin, I've got a few of Keiths lures left. Used to buy them from him at the markets and occasionally pull up for a chat on the way home from the ramp. This doesn't have his spot. Remains a mystery.
I wish I could get a few more of Keith's lures for my modest collection. He was a such
a lovely Bloke.

Not all Boysey lures have the red dot. I have a couple identified as Keith's without them - some where in a container full of stuff.

Yes, not all Keith's lures had the dot but it makes them easy to identify. Mick is right, that is certainly one of Keith's, the paintjob, the eyes etc. I reckon I would even have the Vee Pattern template here to match it, somewhere.
Cheers,

Gavin

Well it's a bit embarrassing but I'm coming clean. Put my glasses on and undid the hooks. Red dot just as you all said.
