G'day All.
I'm the son of the bloke who makes Tinaroo lures.
He's still making them, but in small numbers.

Cheers Kev

Kev would you have the contact detail for tinaroo lures or ur old man? I am interested in getting some of these "old faithful" lures. Met this bloke up the gulf who had this pink, blue and green one with silver stripes. Out fished any other lure that we used 3 days in a row for Barra and King Salmon

Hi Kevin,
My first time on the forum. I am interested kin purchasing some lures.  I purchased some at your dads place in  in 2005 and used Latham in Darwin on the little finness river. My wife caught a 65 and 5 minutes later a 83.
I then tried the same lure and got spooled with a big fellow. Would like to get some more as we will be at Tinaroo in jan feb. Would love to hear from you.
Phil and Helen

Kev, are your dad's lures still being sold in the caravan park at Tinaroo? That's where I got mine from about 10 years ago.

Hey kev
If your old man is still making the timber tinaroo lures I'd love to be able to buy a few of him. If you could send me some details that would be great.

Hi Kev,

Not sure if you will get this or not, but im wondering if it is possible for you to check something for me. I am in the process of buying some protos of the tinaroo lures. From what i und umderstand, your his son.
Im just wondering if you could have a look and see what you think if they are and what not, and ot would be even better if i could get a letter or something confirming that they are.

I have attached a photo as well mate
