PETE
Hi Murray , Just a short note to say thankyou for helping with the personalised lure you made for me , the quality and workmanship is outstanding and I cant wait to show it off this season. I have included in this e-mail a photo of the marlin that we caught this year which at the time the fishing was very hard for some boats but we caught 2 marlin ( Blue and a Stripey) on two consecutive days on the same lure ( BLUE KNIGHT BIG SWIMMER) In fact the marlin swam past other lures to get it. Know that my boat will be fishing HOOKER lures this year.
Thanks, Pete the PO-CHA . Team PO- CHA FISHING.

Just got back from a fishing holiday in the Bay of Islands on my boat "Flying Start". Tagged and released 6 marlin, 3 of them on the Medium Swimmer (Blue Knight) lure, even though it was swimming alongside various other named brands. Proof again what great lures these are! Cheers Colin
