a mate from work aquired a box of old fishing lures and flies off his grandad inlaw from the north coast of n.s.w....anyway he brought the box in for me to have a look....after of hours of telling him they were no good and that he should give them to me and then begging him to sell me the box with all the lures..only pictures were allowed to be taken..( i love old tackle)..

here is a Vivif Flopy made in france..it is sort of a cross between a hardbody and a soft plastic the head hardish and the body soft rubber..and it has a weird hook setup, with 2 double trebles on the tail end...going thru my older fishing books it says they were a great lure for bass....if i only i could put it to the test:unsure: ....
