Morning Workers and Retirees,
@ Tony - I got an email address for the Lure Maker from Facebook ( no, I do not have a Facelook account) but I was able to lurk and get that. He seems to do English so I sent him a note.
If you are interested, while the lures he makes are certainly “fishable” they are hand carved and finished, rather expensive and sold as works of art. He apparently keeps a pretty long waiting line.
I am always looking for unique Christmas gifts for my son and a couple of the in laws and these would be perfect for their offices/libraries as they are all fishermen and they all just got back from a 10 day family trip to Italy.
Here is the Facebook page if you woul like to see what he does. Pic below is my favorite and called a copper mullet, the fins are actually hand fabricated copper. He hand makes and paints the eyes.
