'Got a phone call from the son of Graham Reid the maker of Larrikin Lures to say that Graham had lost his fight with Cancer on January 2. You can see a number of his lures in my Lure Encyclopaedia - they are very high quality and very under-recognised. I felt honoured that the family rang me to tell me the sad news.' Frank P

Lawson Lures, Don Lawson - NSW:
Don Lawson is a New England maker who has been around making lures since the mid 80's. He marketed a range of lures called the 'Riverking' and the legendary 'Panther' or more correctly the 'Emmaville Panther' after the area he makes his lures. Don mainly makes plastic lures these days but also puts out a limited number of timber lures but these generally don't get stocked in the shops.
The larger older River kings may have the bib tow point onto the lower screw eye as shown on the lure below.
Don was also taught to make lures by Rob Gaden from RMG Lures which was documented in the following from the Lure and More Forum, 2011.
RDR - 'Don made his first lure in my shed in Glen Innes . . .the year was 1990. The very first of them was made by cutting the head of a "Scorpion" about 7" long , that I had carved & was laying on the bench. He cut the head off ( with my permission ) on my band saw & started mucking around with bib shapes , sizes , & angles. Only a handful of these were ever made by hand......but several hundred timber " River kings " were made. That's because I made the bodies for him on an over-head plunge router , that I had at the time. I even made the master-jigs to make the bodies for him. After just over 12 months , the lure was sent to Lively lures for moulding in Urathane....as Don wanted easier production. That is when the polycarb bib was first used in this lure.'
The early ones were made from metal using old style ribbed alloy door type kick plate bib. The current 60mm Riverking range are all plastic.
These colour charts show the range for the River King 60 (above) and the River King 85 (below) after they went to plastic in the mid to late 1990's.

Lennys Lures - VIC:
Made by Len Maples from Wangaratta, Victoria - the following quotes come from the Lure and More forum and really tell the story of Lennys Lures. Unfortunately Lenny passed away in 2019.
'Lenny is my father, a mad keen Barra fisherman, who got sick of having to replace expensive lost lures in the mid 80's. He lost interest after illness and handcrafted all his lures from Tasmanian Huon pine, making various sizes colors and shapes adaptable for fresh water cod or salt water'
'Dad, Len Maples from Wangaratta, is a life time member of the Booraloola fishing club, in his 70's now, he used to experimented on all different sorts of shapes and sized lures. From small 2inch (bug jumpers) to 6-7 inch barra lures, various sized/shaped bibs for different dive action, even trialed a few with ball bearings inside for a rattle affect, he mainly made them for himself, but when people started to show interest, he made and sold them privately. He still has a collection he uses for his own needs, but after health and marriage problems he lost interest and hasn't made a lure in almost 10 years. But they were very successful, with my then 16 years old brother Roy making front cover of fishing world magazine, August 93' with a 45lb barra caught in the Daly River, Darwin on a blue lure of Dad's.'

Lizard Lures - QLD: 
Lizard Lures were made by Dennis Hawkins from Glenview. The following is an extract from Lure and More;
'I started Lizard lures when i was 18 just after i finished school in 1994. I had played around with carving timber lures for a while and i came up with one design which i thought looked alright and swam really good too. I met Peter Howard who was a partner with Alan Dolan from Lively Lures just after they had split up and Peter liked my lure and liked me so he hired me to run the production of the lures. I was put off after about 12 months as the business (peter's business) wasn't doing so well and i ended up selling Lizard Lures to a mate of mine Jackson Hopkins in 1996 before i went to the UK for an 18 month working holiday. While i was in the UK Lizard Lures was sold to Dennis Hawkins from Hawkeye Lures. A lot of people think he started Lizard lures but he didn't. I think he ended up winding the business up and just selling them through the Hawkeye brand. I only had the one lure that was a 75mm deep diving lure designed for flathead. The lure proved very popular with bass and yellowbelly as well as jacks,cod etc. The lure got down to about 12 feet. I started with only 6 colours and then added another 2 colours later on. I will post some photo's soon and would love the lizard to be recognised as a part of QLD's cottage luremakers history. Jackson did make a smaller lure too about 50mm but i don't think Dennis made it, i'm not sure? I only own about 8 of my own lures and would love to track down at least a colour set of my own lures! The first 100 or so did not have any writing underneath and then we re-did the mould and it had the name written for the remainder.'

Since moving to Northern QLD 25 years ago, manufacture has only been  occasional but in 2012, Ron started to make enough and sells at the local markets. Below shows some of the earlier Local Lures with the rough time lines of when they were made.
'The name Local Lures came about 30 years ago when Ron and his wife left SE Queensland and travelled by caravan. Before leaving Ron roughly cut out a box full of lure bodies and bibs and carved and sanded them wherever he stopped. As a joke they were called Local Lures and the name stuck hence 26 years later in Cairns the lures are still called 'Local Lures'.
Local Lures current range which are still being made in small numbers.
