Timber King Lures

Nando
My personal Nando lures encompass nudies as well as bright paint jobs , ranging from his traditional square cut metal bib types, to the round polycarbonate type created in the style of the bubblemakers , straight minnows and the undercut boomarang.
He is the consumate, low volume wooden lure maker and quiet high achiever who hails from far North Queensland.
The primary features of his barra lures, apart from beauty, is that of great strength.
Check out his unique bubble maker, right hand side first picture, reputed to take barra when live bait wont!
At the moment I have 40 models. The latest 5 models are deep divers. I tested them in 6 metres of water and got them to touch bottom so i class them as 5 metre + swimmers.
These were tested May 2010 up the top end
where the barra loved them amongst other
species of fish. Tow points on these lures
are on the bib system but it took me over a
year to work out the best way to make them
tough as i like fail proof lures and don't
really fancy tow points on the bib system.
Therefore I'm happy with results as they
passed with flying colours..Bib materials
used for these new lures are alloy and
polycarbonate. Could not get any to fail so
I cant say which is better. |
