Raining Bass
Last night got out between the rain storms to catch some cracking Bass. Didn't leave home until 9pm and driving along thinking what am I doing. That all changed after the first cast.
After that a few smaller rats than another nice fish in the low 40s
A few more rats so time to move on.
While driving home, now well after midnight I stopped for a last cast thingy. Anyway while walking the lure just off the rod tip boooooooof a season PB smashes the lure at my feet. Hooked on a short leash this thing jump twice and powers of up stream. This was over come by some solid drag. With no net or a mate to help it was a go hard and grab tight.
So what a way to start Australia Day with catching a Beast of a East Coast Australian icon

Midnight BOOFS
With a cracker of a storm in the hills the Bass must be on the job. And yep they were. Took some time to find them but when we did they were good fish. All fish taken on the Nutterjuck Walker aka Huntsman.

One Year Down
WOW its been a year since we started making lures again. After about a 10yr break the itch needed to be scratched. Things have come along way in the last year. The raw prototypes moved and got tweaked as the year progressed
Wake Bait- Prototype, Full flocked than Full gloss paint as the year went on
One year down and Nutterjuck Lures would like to thank you all for your support in the first year. Keep your eyes open as you many find a Nutterjuck lure somewhere you least expect it. I know that I have lost a few over the last year.
Merry Christmas and Happy New year
Wake Bait- Prototype, Full flocked than Full gloss paint as the year went on
The Walkers got tweaked, tweaked and tweaked some more. Starting with poly bibs than moved to ally, Fully flocked to full gloss paint jobs. Lets not forget the final tweak which will become its own branch in the year to come, the tweaked Walker to run a assist hook
The Stickbaits changed over the year with some ups and downs with them. The amount of work, time and research that goes into them is insane. To start with the 220mm Stick was introduced than latter in the year the 160mm Stick and just last month the Sinking 160mm Stick.
Mid year the Marble finish was released and was taken on by many of our customers. Bass Baits and Stickbaits got marbled.
Along the way the old grey matter was running overtime with many sleepless nights. Some ideas were good and some not so good. Lots of prototype were made and tested with some outstanding results. Some were put into the production line while others were left to be tweaked in the future. The Fizzer, Pop/slider and Native Diver were released
So with all these lures there were some fish to go with them. Heres some pics of fish caught over the year
For a good friend that has had to put up with the crap ideas and theories I come up with. These lures were made from a log that I found at our Bass fishing spot. So what better Birthday gift than a set of lures made from a log at your Bass hole.

Happy Birthday Chris
For a good Mate and long time friend. These two lures are made from a log at our Bass hole. I even think we both have tripped over this log.

Marbled Squids
After fishing the rocks last week, its was clear that I need to add a sinking Stickbait. So after many hrs in the cave I tweaked the 80g floating stickbait and came up with a 160mm 100g sinking stickbait. And no I didn't just add weight. New timber was used which is painful as its so hard to cut and shape

Field testing
Well someone has to do it so it might as well be me.
Testing the Marbled Mackerel (see below for info)
Switched back to 3/0 Owners as I found the stick swam better rigged with them. In doing so I pulled the hooks on 4 fish before this one was landed.
This is only a Rat but its the intended species. It can be only up hill from here.
