A couple of lures that worked well in PNG.Also Bob's,lures worked very well.Anything that was 3 to 5.mtrs went well on the trip.Most of the shallower running lures did not suit the conditions presented to us during our trip.More pics will come soon.

A few battle injuries evident ,but they all seem to manage the brutal treatment from the fish.

Here's a few that worked well for me on the trip.No doubt there were several others but they are listed as "missing in action". Mike(Brolly)

Dave the custom crafted were in brollys box but I appropriated a couple they are still available I think.

The Deep River accounted for the first bass of the trip as well as a few more along the way.  The hooks got swapped onto soemthing else at some stage.

2rods you are on the mnoney it is a scurvy dog lure.  Wayne was on the trip and ended up with a nice lot of bass on them as well as us getting to give them a run.

Fellas there were lots of different lures tried on the trip but not all were suitable on the day.Lures that were made for me for last year's trip were also tried .Some were lost and others were not the correct depth.With only so many days to fish and everyone wanting results it is hard to test everything.
Hopefully more pics and maybe some video will surface soon.
A big Thankyou for all the makers that sent me lures to try and hopefully next year I will go back up again.
