Log Leaper Collectable Series

Friday, August 22nd, 2008

Hi All,

Due to popular request, Log Leaper have brought out a signed Collectable Series. The first batch contains a set of 8 unique Log Leaper Cod Lures each of which has been handmade and signed by Fred Zass. The lures are our regular cod lures, but have a high gloss lacquer and a more even finish. There are two once-off signed regular lures that we did for a client a while back, but apart from that, getting one of these lures would mean getting one of the first signed Log Leaper Cod Lures. Who knows that might even be worth something one day.

As an added bonus, each lure has its own unique name and dedicated website. The names are a bit tongue in cheek ( I got the idea from the Stradivarius Violins, apparently each violin has its own unique name), but I have tried to link the names up to endangered Australian fish. A token gesture maybe, but a gesture nonetheless. And yes, I am aware of the irony of a fishing lure manufacturer attempting to raise awareness about fish which are under threat :)

Anyway have a look at the new lures and let us know what you think of the idea.

Fishing at low water levels

Wednesday, August 20th, 2008

Hi to all you fisher men & ladies,

Fishing our waters here, “Swan Hill area” most fishing is being done from the bank, with great success.

Most of our streams are dried up but for some holes; there are quite good Yellows An Cod are being lured in this type of fishing;

If they are not caught and eaten they are going to die any way; What a Waste;

Cheers to all My fisher Friends

Fred.
