Fishing World Aug 1999 The Spitfire lure 10cm
I found it a little hard to see the detail on the lure. It appears it can catch fish.
The trebles are not positioned at the end of the lure.
There is a reference to the spitfire lure elsewhere but not by this lure maker.
Does anybody have any of these lures in their collection.
Regards John

Thanks Fletch Darby
I am amazed, there is not many Aussie lures that you have not come across.
Is it right some of the hook placements are not necessarily located at the end of the lure.
I had thought nobody would have come across these lures.
Thanks for posting
regards John

John, yes the rear hook eye is placed forward about 15-20mm from tail. Scott's reasoning was to allow less short strikes and I guess the body is a little more robust and the tail would stand less chance of splitting under pressure of fish struggle.
