Here are some of my MD lures, some of them are quite rare or one offs. I don't have the correct lens to get good photos, so I might update with some better photos at a later date. The photos do these lures no justice at all, look much better in person.


Above is a red cedar 'traditional barra' fat version and a silky oak 'tiger'. Both have caught their fair share of fish. The cedar looks stunning in the water as it lets off an almost golden red gleam in the sunlight.


These are my MD scorpions. The silky one at the top is dead set gorgeous on both sides, middle one is painted and the last is huon pine with a great action in the water. These little guys don't get out much, nor will they anytime soon.


These are some rare ones, top lure is a hairy oak 'traditional barra' that is the nicest lure I've ever seen. I will add some pics soon. Middle lure is another 'traditional barra' in silky oak Mark gave me for my birthday (Cheers Mark), it's a beauty both sides as well. The last lure is a rare 'tiger' in hairy oak. Needless to say, these guys never get out of the house!

Just put all these on eBay if anyone is interested. Not often you see them for sale, and impossible to order haha. I wouldn't normally promote my own auction but I've been asked about these lures a lot over the years, so now is your chance guys!!

Nah mate. You hold on to them if you're fishing them. I can scratch them up for you if you don't want to though.
