Well it may be a surprise that I am a McFeeters Fanatic LOL but will try this topic. 
Don't anyone tell " JustLooking"  I liked the Idea of the JJ of the week thread Embarrassed

hopefully it could be a great thread to list one or as many lures of Trevor's you want to. No need to share your entire collection maybe just one would be great to start with.  

So please feel free to post a pic of a McFeeter lure, used or mint does not matter. 

We have a few new members whom may like to add or learn from this Slide show. 

Cheers and thanks for any help ! Thumbs Up

Here's my first picture and a well admired and cherish lure in my collection. 

The Humble " DART "  albright it be a Super one and his eye is looking straight back at you LOL

Hello, This is a great idea so I will join in the fun.  Just to show the new members how good the established members are to new lure collectors. I am a new collector and have only been collecting about a year.  I bought this lure from a bloke at expo.  He had 4 shrimps a 201 and three darts and this lure for sale .  I bought this one in the hope it may be able to be identified later on.  So far everyone asked has drawn a blank.  I asked Debbie Dare for her opinion and she has kindly offered to take the photos to Trevor himself to see if he can shed any light on the origin of the lure.ClapClapClap

@ Stinger, mate that is a nice lure and from the close up Picture i now know what you mean by Fluro colour, it looks the same as my 7 Inch Jew-Anne. 



@ Mr Cornboy, I wish you all the luck with the picture Debbie is taking to show Trevor mate you never know Big smile


P.S.  the Pic's don't have to be just Darts, any McFeeter lures is good and will help new members as well as Quenching my habit LOL

Thanks Tony ,  Someone made it and it is old the varnish has dulled some what, so it has a bit of age and the tow point wire is twisted around itself in the manner used before the soldering of the wire tow point.  Travers  has a lure with the same twisted wire tow point.  Time will tell {hopefully}.

Thanks all for posting your pictures up, it's great to see these great lures in many collectors hands, except Darren as he stated they are great fish catches Big smile

Froggy, I reckon you're doing fine mate think i'll be asking you for trades soon when I hunt down Darts Tongue

Dingo it's good to see two lures in that special colour and can just see the same signature on both lures they are the same time period.  Nice score. 
I'm just waiting till Brolly's not looking to borrow his Dart Wink

That is the colour for fishing on moonlit nights. Trevor combined those colours long before purple was a fashionable must. Debbie D

Try to keep this ticking along Big smile

Just a couple of the smallest of Trevor's lures the " Mini Dart "  Great lure I used to catch a lot of Bass on them at Hinze dam in my back yard years ago.  These must have been a right bugger of a lure to hang onto and hand carve LOL

P.S.- always looking for more of them anyone

Ok Tony, I'll join your little Mc Feeters soiree LOL
I now have 3 raggedy ass lures of Trevors, but I am sure each has many stories hidden in the scars.

Dual signature Dart
No visible signature Shrimp

Allan, I love it too, I saw this one a year ago, and the guy was still fishing it for Bass. He messaged me before the expo and said he would see me there, he dropped by and donated the Shrimp, with the proviso I made him a few of my T Shrimp clones in the same pattern.
I was flabbergasted to be truthful, and I have started on his T Shrimps.

Ok just worked out an easier way to get my pics on here so watch out lol...
 
Now I must say this is what a Dart is supposed to look like, not like those highly polished models you guys have. I bought her new in the 90s and have caught a feew cod with her.

How many stripes does a dart have? How ever many Trevor wanted and depended on how thick the paint was on the screen to how wide the stripe.
