Barry certainly kept me busy on my visit in Cairns, and a week just wasn't long enough to do all we'd have liked to.

Fortunately we had the pleasure of catching up with Ron Cockbain for morning tea at Ron's place near the South Johnston River, whilst on our way south to fish the Tully with Ross Digman, and then catch up with Vic McCristal at Cardwell, before heading north back up to Cairns.

Ron, it was a pleasure to meet you, and I hope that some day we might get an opportunity to wet a line together!

Ron had very generously sent a few Damper Divers to Barry for me, and it was great to be able to thank Ron in person.




I'm honoured to add these beautifull lures to my collection, thanks Ron, I love your work!






Cheers, Tony

For the love of Fishing Lures.
