Was shown these today when I was out on the local lure hustings.

Lady said they were of her dad who only ever used hand lines.

These were from the Murray near Yarrawonga 1975/76






These were early 70's she thinks from somewhere near Broken Hill - Menindee perhaps ???Confused



again from the Murray River somewhere later 70's.




She said her dad was a very popular man when he came back from his trips as the fish fed many poor families. The head and frames were boiled up "?" to make broth.Confused

And no she didn't have any lures for me.
