Reno

OAHU, HAWAII

Reno's Lures are the hobby-built lures of Reno, a maker who keeps good company — he runs in the circle around Ivan Honda of Sh-Bite and Butch of Hobbietat. He makes his lures as a hobby rather than a business, and they're sold through Hobbietat. He's known especially for his fish-head lures.

As a museum and archive, we're glad to document Reno and Reno's Lures, a hobbyist maker well-regarded within the Sh-Bite and Hobbietat circle.
