Bigger baits

After receiving an email some time ago from an angler seeking a bigger lure for Mulloway and Barramundi , I made these few oversized "Mugil Giants".

They are 20cm long and shallow running.

For trolling , and casting!

Crays and Coral Trouts.

Recently finished these sets.

"Crays" and "Coral Trouts"

Other lures.

Been working on some different lures recently.

Mainly for Golden Perch and Murray Cod , they have aluminium bibs and soldered towpoints.

The soldering is less than perfect. It's a real skill and I have much to learn. 

Practice , practice....

..... and Saratoga.

The 'Harry Herring'.

For some years now I have made a few 'Harry Herrings' for anglers trolling and casting for Barramundi. I have wondered if the same design would work on Murray Cod  , Golden Perch and in smaller sizes , Australian Bass.

So I made a couple and  replaced the standard polycarbonate bib with an aluminium bib and used a soldered towpoint , commonly used on Cod lures made in eastern Australia from the 1970's till the present day. 

I was happy to hear the lure worked well , diving deep with a wide aggressive action.

Lloyd with a Murray Cod caught on 'Harry'.
