Hi there,
Some time ago I got a phone call from the Australian importer of the Ofmer lures. (And yes he is a member of this forum, this is how he first got in contact with me). He basically asked me if I wanted to try his lures in the Top End ... I said Yes...
And today I received 6 free lures that I will put to use in the next round of the Series, and actually maybe even try them a bit before that if I find myself in a Barra fishing situation again.
They look goods, and very well finished, now I just hope that the Barras will like them too, at least this is some lure that they won't have seen before.
So here are a few pics of these lures.
Have a good day, Pecheur

Faulksy, next time that your in Darwin, would you mind explaining that one to my beloved wife? It seems that she does not really agree with this simple fact...

What are the quality of the hooks?
On the back of the packaging of the Minnow it says Hook: Cultiva ST-46 (Japan Owner Hook). That is all I know at the moment, I guess that only when a barra will be on them I will really know of their qualities.

Hi Tissy,

Hay where can i get my hands on some of these to try myself?
I don't think that they are being sold in Darwin yet. From what I understand the guy is still in the process of looking for retailers to sell his products. But do not quote me on this, as I have a tendency to easily misunderstand things...
If ever I learn more about it, I will let you know.
