Entered the United (?) servo in Tenterfield and saw a big cod hanging up on the wall with a big surface walker in it's mouth. The lure ended up being a Harry's Duck made by Roy Durre. In the 90's, Roy, myself and Harry Watson were in the Aust Bass Assoc, in fact I think Roy is still in it (Aust Basstony?).  Roy named the lure after Harry. I got hold of Roy and a few are on there way once he finishes them. I'll post up photos when they come. I was told the cod went 125 cm.

Classic nice old lure and great cod. I agree with Nicho he should bring out a limited edition.

Martin, I had three minnow sizes by Roy, nicely finished, well made. Have since traded one, but have kept the larger and this smaller below both in tiger.

Here's a well chewed Harry's Duck that Harry gave back to me after he'd finished trying to destroy it on cod.
