Hey all,
Been clearing out my Dad's shed over the weekend for him and came across a bunch of fishing gear including some really old lures but these big vibes really caught my eye, the photo does not really show but the detail in them is amazing. Anyway to cut a long story short does anyone know who makes these or where they are from. My old man has no idea how he got them. Halco scorpion in the pic for size scale.
Anyone know what these are?

Give a man a fish, and he can eat for a day. But teach a man how to fish, and he'll be dead of mercury poisoning inside of three years.

Not sure but if you dropped them down and ripped them up with pauses, they would get hammered by the tooth brigade

They had them in a bargain bin somewhere in Darwin a few weeks back. Tackle box i think
As jeffish said work a treat on big Mackerel. Make sure you use wire
Work a treat in deeper troll runs slowly over deep structure
