Finland import 
 

Extremely rare set 

Collector grade at the finest 

Cult like following as collectible and a work of art.   functional fishing lure as every lure was hand tested 

This is a collectors edition that was the owner Jorma Turunen the inventor of the UKKO personal lures .  

These are original pre Rapala probably late 1990 or early 2000.  

These are the original hand made and hand painted 

Some of the patterns and sizes are discontinued 

There are a variety of sizes that can catch a variety of game specie freshwater or saltwater 

The original inventor was a fishing big pike and musky .  I think these lures can work on most species from freshwater to salt water ( peacock bass) 

These would work in Canada or Florida 

UKKO  do Not make the big lures anymore and they are owned by Rapala . 

These were in a display.  There can be handling marks from the hooks and are old stock .  These are around 30 years old . 

This can be made as a wicked display or the actually catch fish . 

There two extra large lures . Those go for $250 each  ( peacock rainbow and fire tiger )  and another large 3 rd rainbow trout.
You get three large lures . Those are the rarest . 

All have his signature .  Some of These could have been prototypes . This was early in his career. 

i obtain these is I owned an angling shop in Chicago.  He was from Finland and was in the states collecting rare fishing equipment .  These were not for sale .
He wanted rare collectible custom painted lures to take home and I wanted his lures . 
I ended up with the 7 pieces set .
