I need some hair. Hey Chris are you quoting the famous childhood story "Hats for Sale" ? I haven't read it since I learned how to read, but doesn't the story revolve around hat stealing monkeys? I guess that there are similar "evil monkeys" that live in the dunes surrounding Race Point. Accept instead of stealing your hats, they make off with your bait.

Salty, you need to either glue the eyes in on put them on before you clearcoat so they don't fall off. One eyed plugs look funny:smash: don't take this wrong, just constructive criticism. :)

Salty,

3 questions for ya...

1) you got any tuna bombs layin around? (don't see them on your site)

2) Someone has to make custom quality trolling plugs again, ever consider it? ...bigones...10"+ for deep trolling, your just the man...
Trolling single plugs still works very well. There are no quality custom trolling plugs out there. Its even hard to find Gibs GTS-3's anymore and they are marginal. They will be pricy to make but I for one would be willing to fork over the coin to get my hands on some high end trollers. IMO this is a wide open nitch...most of todays current custom plug makers concentrate on the surfcaster...which is fine but far more guys fish from boats and boaters tend to spend a lot more then surfcaster on gear this = bigger market.
I would be happy to be a field tester!!
:D

3) Will you have lots of stuff for sale at the shows? I would like to check out your new stuff.

little comment: you need a "contact #^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&" button on your site.:)

Slip that is a new type of plug, they now dissolve in your hands.

Think I will start glueing those too just in case.

noooo the dannies have the eyes superglued under the clear....

The cb swimmers got the eyes under the clear too but Slip says he lost an eye so looks like I gots to glue them too even though they recessed...first plug out of 6 or 8 batches so far though, so I wonder if Slip's was there to begin with...

must be a very fine clear coat?

UserRemoved1
01-07-2004, 06:58 PM
no I think it's cuz it's about the same color as the epoxy in the eyes themselves?

ML is that a Danny or a crazy bugger?

Yep my Dannie has flat eyes which are glued to the body before they are clear coated. It's a pain in the arse too....I am thinking about pullin the eyes and leavin them off. Takes about 3 hours to do 200 of them things. :eek:

01-07-2004, 07:05 PM
yeah, i can see the glue, what made me think there was no clear coat was because i could feel the lip of the eye.

That coating is sprayed so it's prob 4-5 thousands thick.

it's ok, I have plenty of eyes, I'll put one in it :smash:

The clearcoat is SHINY, I like the sprinkles. It was the small swimmer, the new disolving one, I guess the right eye disolved:confused:
Sorry I mentioned it:smash:

I have a Salty plug and its sweet but it has glasses... do fish hit plugs wearing glasses?
All my other plugs tease this one and call it four eyes and other stuff....

Salty.......... you are making some good stuff man.... you`ll always have a few product problems here and there so don`t sweat it.
Great to see in your relatively short time in the business that you are striving for a high quality product with a reasonable price.

Go Scott!

I will be starting a new program in the spring called "swimmer camp" you can send your wayward swimmers there for the spring and we will train them how to swim, pop, gurgle, and spit. They will be able to have weenie roasts and send letters home.
