funny enough no,i havent we a lure for a while,it is a copy of a very early heddon lure from about 1930,and the pattern was a favorite of anglers for near 50years.

@ Fish

Looks very nice , bare wood like that , but why did you rig so many hooks ?
Would surely give you a headache netting your pike , as all of the vacant hooks would foul up with the net hopelessly

!

@ wabbiter

Not sure , whether I'm allowed to give a link to another British site here(I'm a newbie in here) , not to violate the site rules , ..... but I know a site providing a heap of links to UK and international suppliers for fishing related stuff , also lure components , of course !

Just shoot a PM , if you're interested !

links are fine here,ime not so insecure as to ban them!

i put so many hooks on as i was trying to emulate the old lures from heddon in the 1920's.

@ fish

OK , I see the point in your "historic" intentions , .......but more than once I've been swearing whilst netting pike on larger US-made crankbaits , which usually have three hooks ,... thus two vacant .

If you're unlucky and these catch up the net BEFORE the fish is in , you're into serious trouble(been there , done that)

.

The link , that I refered to , is www.lurefishinguk.com ,.... on the entry page there click the yellow/black striped lure symbol on the left for "links" , after another page opens up , ......guess , it's the top option to click to open up countless links to suppliers of fishing related stuff worldwide .
