more

:)

I will take 2....:confused: oh...they are not for sale?:( Nice plugs Dave....can you bring one to show Wednesday night?;)

I hope to :) by wed bub

Cool idea. How do they swim?

will let You know, but if its like my other one, well,,,, like a bomber:D

Are you smoothing those out on a table router after the initial body is cut?

nope all by hand ,but my buddy does a lure like that though

those are awesome:btu:

That top guy,olive and gold purple hue,cool.:btu:

Dave, do they have any lead in 'em? Look sweet:) johnny "tRB"

very nice work!!!:kewl:

ever try using a SS, or brass lip, instead of the wood?
nothing wrong with the wood though, just thinking it could be tuned a little if it was metal.... :huh: if needed....

I've seen others try to do em but couldn't make em swim!

Nice work BM!

My three year old daughter is trying to kiss the screen!...

So I know they catch kids!

Well I test swam the wooden bombers and was very happy with how they swim. I know these will all catch fish for sure.
The action is very nice and on one with a smaller lip is has a tight wabble the others wiggle extremely well.

SAWWWEEEET!

Im bringing those with Me tomorrow
and I think I will make one if I have the Time

OLIVE w/PURPLE eye shading:D

PRIVATE PYLE! GET OFF MY BEACH!

i got one:D

Bassmaster,
I like your work. Was thinking of trying something similar on my scroll saw a while back, but I talked myself out of it because I figured that the wooden lip would be a weak point in the lure. Have you had any problems with this?
Most of my favorite fish haunts are studded with rocks that can break even plastic lips.Do you reinforce that area with anything?

Hey Buddy:)
Im not sure how they would be over rocks, But I would make a few and try them where You fish.
I fish over sand and Just made these up But My buddy Mike fishes them with no problem, He made them way long b4 I did
Hope this helps

Bassmaster,
Okay,thanks,I'll give it a whirl when I switch over to tackle building and repair mode(when it's too cold to fish).
Right now things are starting to heat up in the waters I fish ,so I gotta dedicate my time to putting fish in the boat. But I'm really anxious to start working on some plug ideas that I have. Thanks for the inspiration,and for being so free with the advice.
Valentine

no worrys Mate...
Ya can always use some stainless for lips to.
I think the lips will just get banged up on the rocks.
