Yes Tim, a couple of my old ones made from dowel from the local hardware shop. Got my best lure caught Jack of 2kg on the little pink one, Calliope river early 90's. Clap

Eddy Watson showed me up later that day with a bruiser 2kg fish on 1kg line on a pink Nilsie. ClapClap We heard the fish chopping the night before and headed upriver in the early wee hours. Got my jack on the first cast. I was quicker to the spot! LOL

Actually lost very few lures to Jacks, easy fish to target on ultra light gear with the right technique! 2 metres 6kg leader and 30cm 10kg tippet. Lost a lot more on heavier tackle when more pressure is applied to leader! StarStar
