Greetings All,

I have stumbled across your great web site. Very much enjoying learning about lures and their makers. It was not till a recent fishing trip down Glen Lyon Dam way that my eyes opened were to lure collecting. In the past lures had just been a tool. Maybe as we get more season we appreciate things a little more :)

20 years in Military saw me posted various locations- Melbourne Sydney Albury Brisbane Townsville Darwin etc... . Got out in 1999. I was in Brisbane in the early 90's, a member of the North Brisbane Sports Fishing Club so there are some names/ info that are ringing bells. Plus a few other clubs here and there. My fishing has varied from different locations.I have picked up lures here and there. Unfortunately a lot of my tropical stuff must went to other homes or in a box yet to be found :). I have dusted off some lure boxes in the shed and hope to be posting a few pictures seeking some guidance/education in the future.

I have returned to settle in North Brisbane- Albany Creek. Still very passionate about fishing in many forms and my son has picked that up also.

Kind regards,

Lew

Thank you guys for the welcome.

Sorry I am struggling a bit with this photo thing- I have the photos- I can see them in my file manager but can not get them to the forum. They are jpeg format.

Can any one assist/ pointers?

Kind regards,

Gday all
I stumbled onto this site whilst searching for a certain lure that I love, a Stuckey by the way, and thought excellent, there are others addicted as I am.
As an ex-pro fisherman from gulf of Carpentaria I've travelled all over oz but only rarely had time to rod and reel till I settled in the Kimberley.
After 15 years chasing barra and everything in the mangroves and offshore Im lure hooked.
I returned to central Vic. to our farm after 30 years and discovered the magic of cod and yella lures. Bought a tinny and headed up to where I spent my childhood at Tocumwal.
I have become an avid fan of sandfly, kneller, Stuckey and a few others.
Thanks for the welcome to your site.
And tight string !!  Big smileThumbs Up
Addicted to lures ................and fishing of course !!
