Fly & Jig tying members .... ALERT !!
If you would like to have the opportunity to finish tying feathers on a pretty unique lure ... I have contact info for you, that will put unfinished NO-NAME lures (originated by John Fujita) in your possession. These "unfinished" lures are production lures that just do not have the feathers tied onto the stinger hook, or a leader line attached to the main body. (the original leader was 2lb test mono, but I have successfully tested 4lb test mono on these lures) All other portions of the lure are complete & original.
You will be able to purchase these in a lot of 30 unfinished bodies.
What you do with them, after purchase, is up to you. You can use them, yourself, or sell them. But, you cannot reproduce them, as they are patent & copyright protected. But, since the source seller is a patent holding member of the Fujita family, he does allow you to finish & sell those you purchase from him. You are only allowed ONE lot of 30 lures, however, so as to allow as many different members as would be interested, to have a chance at obtaining these lures ... and there is a limited number of these lure lots available. They will be sold on a 1st come, 1st served basis.
The source seller is Jack Fujita, related to Tara Fujita ... current CEO of the No-Name lure mfg business. You can contact Jack Fujita at (831) 234-9895 between 2pm and 4pm Pacific Time, as he works (truck driver) between midnight and 1 pm, so he has a limited call time.
PLEASE ... serious inquiries only.
We've had discussions about this lure, and here's a link that has pics, descriptions, and history of the lure : http://www.crappie.com/crappie/main-...me-jigs-2.html
NOTE : the stinger/trailer hook is (probably) a #12 fly hook ... attached to the lead coated #10 body hook, by a tiny piece of "gut". The gut is tied onto the stinger hook, but is merely attached to the body by a loop knot over the body hook. They can be separated, if you're careful, so that the feather tying is easier to manage. And those little hooks are SHARP !!
Here's a picture of the finished/packaged product :

* The original mfg'd product is still in production, but commercially at a standstill due to not having anyone to tie the white chicken feathers onto the lure. This is the only reason the unfinished product is currently available, and why it's in limited quantities.
So ... buy'em, tie'em, use'em, and then spread the word about your success with them ... so we can get enough public interest to help get this lure back into production.
