Ive got one like that somewhere!
The solid ring and the clear plug behind the head is a give away.
Where they were made by Nilsmaster or is it a early Japanese copy?

They done a deep diving version of that and a shallow version with a tiny lip and a space in the belly to insert a glow stick.
I have some somewhere. Never had a touch on one.

No thanks mate. I went to find them there but can't they must be in the lock up. Found the jointed ones I got at the same time. Not as good a finish.

I think that one is the Yozuri Arc Minnow.

There's a triple jointed Yozuri, similar to the L Jack that comes in a nice pike pattern. Had plenty on those :thumbs: ,

Arc minnow sounds about right. :thumbs:
The wee deep diving ones I have (somewhere), have a rather pointed metal lip.
Mularkeys used to sell them pretty cheap.

I've just spotted this, I have a few of the formu-rat cranks, came loose with no boxes so was not aware they were Youzui !

Nice lures, you can tell they are well made.

Thanks again John.

Will.
