North Australian FISH FINDER TM forums

Went out on Saturday, up a harbour arm for a lock in.
No bait was found in this creek, only a few garfish, but we weren't worried as planned to use some new lures.
My son inlaw lent me his new rod, a G loomis ( my daughter married well) with a hand made lure from a friend of his.

It proved it was worth the goods with 2 harbour barra, and 1 missed.
First barra for the year.

A great start

very cool looking lure , and thanks for posting scamper
Did you get to keep the lure???

Thanks JF, steering working a treat.
I'll get to borrow the lure any time I want.
Don't know who makes them, some fellow in the Northern Suburbs.

Nice work mate, seen a similar lure being sold by a guy at coolalinga markets, I got one in guns and roses, is it timber with a metal bib?

Hi there,

Well done!
By any chance, would you have a photo of the lure?
(I just like lures )

Have a good day,
Pecheur

Good work mate, thanks for posting

Cheers

Well done Scamper.....bastard . I went out with him in his boat and just got to net his two barra. Generous bloke though , he gave me the smaller 63 cm one and he had the 65 Cm model. They had black tails and didn't put up much fight. Still big push of fresh coming down made it hard fishing/boating all round. better when you catch some I suppose. All i caught was a giant Powertail and netted (just garfish bait!!) in cast net.

Hi Percheur, only have the photo's in the picture.
Wooden bodies and metal bibs
