Chip off the old block

Enough said,
He is not coming fishing with me anymore.
Hahaha

RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

Well the last week and a half has seen me sitting down and waiting. Yep waiting for a drive belt on the bandsaw. As there were none in the country I was lucky to find someone who could get one made for me.
So
We are back in action

RAW As

Keeping true to form,
Simple, Done Well
The new RAW model lure. These are rough and ready. Flamed coloured and oiled NOT cleared.

Aha Aha, thats the way, Aha Aha, I like it

Yep a good storm rolled in yesterday with a heap of rain. Not fussed on the wind but need to take the good with the bad.
Ended the night hooking into a few good fish and a couple of REALLY GOOD fish. Losing two big girls at our feet. I guess we are a bit rusty on the Bass this time round.
Anyway looks like some good things to come

3rd Birthday

Well it's been three years since Nutterjuck started back up making lures. WOW how things have moved. At first it was all about Bass Topwater lures. Who would of thought that a oversize Bass lure would turn into the much wanted Codmotion. ThanksMick Haines
The first year had orders coming in thick and fast, it got to the point (where it is now) that I had to stop taking orders and lures became a first in best dressed thing. It's not the best but the best I can do for now. 
HP (hand painted ) is what I'm into at the moment as it's fun getting back to using a brush. 
This next year, well you will have to wait and see. Should I add another colour to the true and tested black and white ? NOT. Lots are in the pipe line but number one will be getting the new shop (workshop) up and running.
So three years down 
THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT. 
Cheers

HP = Hand Painted

Introducing the HP series,

HP for hand painted, Yep I broke out the old school brush and started adding strokes to the lures. There  is something about braking things down into simple steps. Even the eyes are hand painted 3D eyes. The white eyes are added with a bit of UV paint to add that special touch.

Anyway Ill let the photos tell the story.

Game On

2013-14 Bass season has kicked off, Australian Bass that is. As in the past few years its always a thrill to hit the water in the first hrs of open season.
Below is a record of open morning with the added morning glory to finish the session

Im Back into it

After a few months of no production, well

IM BACK

Not full production but its a start

Highs and Lows of 12-13 Bass season

Its that time of year that we all look back at the season that was.
This season started with a cracking high that very quickly became a low that was sooooooo hard to recover from. Opening morning well within minutes of open season I found myself connected to and landing the so called fish of a life time, the UNICORN. But as the story goes with great highs comes great low. The brag matt was stuck together.

This stuff up took a lot out of me but I got back on the horse and kept searching. Things were slow after that night with only one good fish coming each night. These photos are of fish that came over a few week period. Chris and I would fish at least 2 nights a week and sometimes 3.

After the first month the size of fish started to drop plus the pressure on the system was becoming sooooooooooooo crazy. Chris and I were forced to look else where and this was a game changer for us.

With the new found land and the results it was time to introduce my young bloke to the world of night time Bassing. First was a few day trips so he could get his feel, than a night trip. To say I was a proud Dad would be an understatement. At one stage he made a lure than went and caught a BEAST on it.

Than the Floods came. As quick as they came they went. The local systems would not hold the water this time around and I think it had lots to do with the size of the tides when the floods came. We still found fish but not the number in the past years.

Also this year sore some new prototypes come and go. Yes most caught fish but were scraped for different reasons

Towards the end of the season things changed quickly and with a good flood in the month of May had most Bass on there way. We still fish high in the system and pulled a few doing things different. Fly fishing being one and using Cod size lures was another.
