On my dads last trip to KZN he lost his only Abu Lucas on a leader knot failure.  Kept his cool but I know he hurt a little inside. Please let me know if you ever find any.

Hiya

I suspect I have a battlescarred 60g (2-1/8 oz if memory serves me right).However it is down at my holiday -pad. Could let you know by early May if all else fails.

Has a brilliant action ,and contrary to first glance at the shape,even at slow retrieve.

Cheers

Are your Snoek Spinners based on the Lukas shape?

Is it possible to get a couple of these from you?

Looks like they have a 2 1/8 oz listed, as 50g, but 2 1/8 is 60g..so hit them up?
