Need pics.....I will post some as soon as I can get Slingah to come over and take some for me but is anyone working on any new pluggage?:eyes:

With my new CNC Lathe I am turning out some TinFins

<NOTE WELL - This was a joke. I dont have this CNC. but I wish I did >

TINFINS!!!!

:smash: :smash: :smash:
:laughs: :laughs: :laughs: :laughs:

Sorry. I wish that was my rig.
a mini CNC would be cool!!!

too much work and no fishing makes Mike a loose cannon

MikeT....where are those plugs?:huh:

Always! I've got another batch in the works. This is so addicting, I come in every night covered in sawdust and smelling like cedar. There will be pictures when done.

I'm sick of using screw eyes. I'm waiting on a chuck to show up in the mail so I can through drill this batch.

Still looking for a local source for wire. Any ideas?

Also, brad point drill bits . . . know where I can find some?

LOL - too much time spent on the job. hope to have some updates soon!!!

Motorfish......Beaver Woodworking on 123 in Brockton for brad point bits and everything else! NJTackle.com for plug hardware!:happy:

Yes the " Zagger " easy to make ,,,fish love it .. great action .,,,cast a mile .. what eles u want .. Its THE LURE .. trust me ,,,.

That's a fancy lathe, compooterized and the whole nine yards...

My yellow Surf Howdy is red hot! I have not fished another plug from my skiff in the last week. Yesterday was incredible! Even Albies are hitting it. ( BTW Steve, nice work, luv the mottled blue howdy):btu:

Txs..flap...I just need to find a way to get the blending of the 2 colors abit better..they need to be more oblong than round.

Capesams, that jointed eelskin needle is like sexual intercourse for my eyes! :humpty: :shocked:
Very nice!

BB..give me abit of time an I'll make one for u...just remind me later.

Capesams....thanks for the treat:drool: I am a huge fan! Those are some sweet plugs!:eyes: I could look at your work for hours, that was quite a fix!:D

Question.....those Surf Howdys look to be about 8 inches long? Is that long for a Surf Howdy? Also, how are those weighted?:confused:

BF...those can b as big or small as u want to make them..never had a howdy in my hands so I wouldn't know what size bernzy's is.

weighted in the azz an a shot abit midships.

Thanks CS....always there to answer my questions and I appreciate it!;) I was just noticing the length not being critical.:)

Steve...
You are the man...
Havent spun in a while...
That eel skin needle is dead sexy...
Regular eel skin needles :humpty:

BigFish I love those poppers. If you need anyone to test them out on the south shore you know who to talk to :rotf2:

BF....those r dam nice looking plugs....your doin sum great work, keep it up.:kewl:

WOW!!!!!:bo:

Thanks for the comps guys....I am havin' a ball!:happy:

oooooo bigfish......the grain injectareplicator is running again....sunday....cost of admission is a BF needle :D

Dammit...:af: can't.....kids football Sunday and getting ready to go down the backside for the week fishing!:D I will be glad to pay the freight......maybe in a couple weeks?:confused:

:btu: yikes BF,awesome:btu:

NICE STUFF BIG FISH!!!!

those poppers are SWEET

Thanks Christian....I owe it all to my official photographer!:D

Fine Work BF :claps:
Hope you are paying that photographer in plugs...
cuttyhunks looking good :kewl:, and, as usual, Nice Needles.... :drool:

I could tell from his first plug he was gonna be really good at this
here is one of the two he made for me...they sit pretty

Don't forget to take the hook protectors off Mr. Photog!:D Matt got paid up front!;)

Hey!:eek: Isn't that my quarter?:confused:

:D

HABS Clone?

don't start trouble rr2...it's a piece of wood.... :cool:

NOT trying to start trouble at all, the plug is sweet. Just saying it looks like a Habs not a bad thing at all. If I made plugs I would try to copy HAbs as much as possible:D

Immitation is the sincerest form of flattery.......I admire Habs work, not to mention his character. John is a great guy and has been very helpful along the way. I might be able to make just about anything I want.....but I still got a bunch of Habs in my bag, and I always will! (Right Slingah?):D

I was joking;)

Anyways, killer plugs Bigfish. How do your big needles sit in the water?

Thanks RR2!;) They are 10 inches long and I wanted them to suspend so the first time I tried them they were too light......so I doubled the weight in the butt and added weight to the nose and now they do exactly what I made them for.....swim about 2 feet below the surface!:D We will see how they work next week when Slingah, Joey G and I swim them down in Rhode Island!:happy:


:D

stop sayin we are goin to the cape on all the threads when you know dam right well we are goin to Rhode Island:smash:

Well I don't want everyone to know we are going to Rhody you idiot!:smash:

See you there, BF. BTW, there's a one needle toll on the Backbeach during the Fall Run.:)

Jake, you forgot about me! Make it a two plug toll!!!! ( BTW I got your needle you gave me sharpened and ready for the next new moon. It's gonna be juicy out there!!!!!!:btu: :uhuh:

CS,

Those squids make my drool everytime I see them. :drool: I have a stash of hard maple dowels at home with some interesting grain patterns. Can't wait to pick out a nice looking piece and just clear coat it to see what it looks like when done.

Nice work to everyone who posted picks here. Incredible talent on this board. Once I get some practice with the new air brush I'll post some of mine. No more cans for me!

Karl, I got your needle. It's a squidy red/gold Floyd Roman paint copy with Demons eyes on a modified bm blank with the shaved nose. It's a rare item. You are gonna love it. Wanna fish the canal in the morning? You gotta come west sometime.:D

:drool: sounds great Flap... got to work in the morning, besides never leave fish ;) right? thanks for offer tho... gotta learn the canal sometime, meybe I'll tag along sometime.
