ABOUT REIDY’S LURES

Proudly manufactured in Australia, Reidy's Lures known for designing and producing some of the best Barramundi lures in the world. We also have some great bluewater fishing lures & an extensive range of metal jig lures. Some of our smaller lures have had excellent feedback for species such as Trout, Salmon, Bream & Bass to name a few.

PRODUCTION PROCESS

The process starts with injecting ABS plastic into our Moulds. This system is called plastic injection moulding & is performed in Queensland Australia where our tooling for the Australian produced lures is situated.

Once the 2 half bodies are received in Darwin we send them to Palmerston in the N.T where a facility that employs disabled persons pieces the lure together. The process at the factory now begins with the 2 halves of body being welded with an Ultrasonic welding machine. When welded we have a plastic flashing around the body which is hand scraped to a smooth finish ready for painting.In the painting process we use automotive acrylic paints that are applied to the lures by airbrush. Once the lures are painted they are sealed with a clear lacquer.

The next process is printing personality to the lures & this is achieved with Pad Printing machines, this is also where we can produce special printed lures with company logo's etc. When the printing is complete the lures move to the bibbing & hooking area where the lures are fitted with bibs & heavy duty rings & hooks.

The lures are then tank tested for tuning & swimming action in our test tank. When dried the lures are packaged ready for sale.
