Robinson lures

[Cotswoldfisherman]

Could anyone give me their opinion on Barry Robinson's lures? Anything from action to finish would be greatly appreciated.

Every time he puts some for sale on Facebook they sell in minutes, not managed to buy one yet.

I'm not a fan of the hooks and rings on the ones I've bought, way over the top imo and changing them for something lighter can bugger the action but the finish is spot on and the action with the supplied hooks is great.

You won’t find better lures in my opinion, the gliders I have have accounted for no end of fish, His painting skills are immense and you are 100% missing out if you don’t have a few, I can’t speak highly enough of his lures!

That's quite the collection. What the hell do you use to cast the XL trout, isn't that around 180g?

I use my bft roots with a shimano tranx, great line pick up, the sweep of the jumbo is so good

Is that the 6'7 or the 6'9? Always wanted one of them, but the older ones are getting harder and harder to get a hold of and I'm not a fan of the new ones. I've got an old 9ft roots that's got my Calcutta on it, excellent for my big spoons and softies. Got a Tranx a few weeks ago, paired with my Greys Supa Jerk. Apart from the all or nothing drag, I can't fault it.

Yea it’s the 6’7 the older one, my mate has the new bft but as you say I prefer the older ones, why they changed them I don’t know

They catch pike. Not much more you need to know. If you don`t catch pike then you are doing something wrong or there are no pike!

Hahaha Alan .... never miss out on a sales pitch opportunity.

Those gliders look just like Manta's to me

They're similar but the bodies are a little different. The manta is round bodied, Barry's version is flat sided which gives a nice flash as it tilts over on the turn.

In regards action, there's little between them.

I know this post has been around for a few weeks but I couldn’t help but reply!

They are fantastic lures, the build quality is second to none and the patterns are absolute artwork! I don’t leave home without them and I’ve managed a fair few very good fish on them now. You won’t be disappointed

[Cotswoldfisherman]

Very nice.

[Danoutdoors]

Very nice, plenty of fish to come on that!
