Enticer

OAHU, HAWAII — ACTIVE YEARS 1970s – 1990s

Enticer was the lure line of Neil Nishikawa, an Oʻahu maker who worked from the 1970s into the 1990s. He has since passed away.

Public documentation of his lures is scarce, but the Enticer name remains part of the Oʻahu lure-making story of its era, and genuine pieces are vintage collectibles for those who know them.

Identification tips:

  • At first glance, we would look for his triple stepped eye that utilizes red, yellow, and black.
  • He usually uses his "Enticer" Logo which is the text in the shape of a fish.
  • Another tell is the shape of his saddles, which sometimes have that extra stepped ridge on the edge of his saddles.

Below, you’ll find our ever-growing digital archive showcasing every lure that has come through our shop. This collection is constantly evolving as new lures arrive, making it a living record of rare, limited-production lures. We will continue updating this database regularly, building what we aim to be the largest digital archive of offshore trolling lures in the world.
