Very nice Simon,

Re: More C Lures
Presume this is one of Dominics.
Compared to some of the more recent ones the front profile is smaller so i will assume it is a bit earlier.
Also noticed the bib is pinned, I might hazard a guess that the front has been made more substantial to cope with the pressure of the bib which needed pinning.

Re: More C Lures
All
Barra Pros were developed by me while we had the business.
An easy way to tell the difference between our lures and later models was ours were a slimmer and sometimes smaller lure. This was mainly aesthetic to give them a professional finish and look. They will have a small nose and not a cut off appearance.
I started pinning the bibs after anglers were complaining that a fellow North Queensland makers bibs were pulling out on trophy fish - I reckoned that nobody was going to accuse me of losing their fish of a lifetime.
Anyway I noticed soon after Terry Leadbeater also started pinning his bibs so he was obviously thinking the same.
