SPINNERS FOR TIGER

[MrD]

Found these handmade spinners in my dad's stuff.Handmade 45years ago in Rhodesia and used for tigerfishing Kariba. Life went on despite sanctions and a war.Forced to improvise.Polished em up a bit and quite functional.

Hi Bennie,with these there was a few Abu spoons made in Sweden.A 18g Koster,20g Toby and 2x 20g Salar. A quick search on the internet and I came upon a site where they sold 2nd hand. Seems they no longer made? The site L.B.Tackle uk.

I must be hones, I don't know much about those sinners. So all of it is interesting!

There certainly are copies of them even if the originals are not available. Seen plenty around. That said, makes it all that much more worthwhile holding onto them.
