Lure ID

Post by Jimk2 »

I bought this in a batch of lures recently, does anyone know who’s made this?
It’s got a great gliding action and rises when you work it.

Looks a bit too fat for that. Possibly a garden fork handle. :smile:

I was thinking homemade but one of the Harris angling mean lures was a similar shape and I’m sure it’s hook where in the same position as the old holes in your lure
