I've got a few of those slim Dannys. Had 'em so long I'm not sure if they're original Pinchleys or Beachmasters. Whoever made them marketed them under the model name "Eely".

'Bout 8" I think, but has 2 belly hooks. I just went looking for them, but the wife re-arranged the basement :wall:

Had to move a chain saw and a bed frame :doh:

Between seeing Capesam's work and then a Danny Pinchney Sandeel plug on *bay, I was inspired to hit the basement last night. Here's what I came up with. It's about 1" long and 3/4" wide at the shoulder. Has an NJT #1 Lefty lip. Not sure aobut weights.

That Red w/ Black Head is pretty slick looking..

What's the width of the lip? I made some skinny Dannys but they didn't swim right. I think the lip was too big.

I guess they're Beachmasters, then ;)

Sorry Steve, no digi cam.

A standard Mid sized Beachmaster Blue Mackerel Danny and a Gibbs Eely version. There are some Eelys by Beachmaster posted on the Some Plugs Link thread.

Steelhead, your close but the head slope is too long. Shorten it up by half. Nice plug though. Did ya ever think of going jointed on that. I have an x-ray somewhere of a jointed Eely.

Flaptail

Beachmaster and Mr. Pogie jointed Eely type Danny.

Flaptail, You read my mind. I may try one like that this AM before
I have to sit down and get to work :-) You're right about the proportion. In hindsight, I think I started with stock that was too small a diamter. That x-ray would be interesting to see...

Here's a "quick one" I did as a second try. Got to bet a band saw and/or a belt sander. Doing the flat face on top with a file bites...
Angle may be too flat and not sure about the lip. This is an NJT #1 Lefty.

Still way to much on the slope. For a look at some flat faced Eelys by Beachmaster go to page 41 on the Some Plugs thread link.:D

Did a quick look on page 41. Didn't seeanything. Got to get to work, will look later today. Got toprint that who thread sometime.

Slope too flat and long?

The Eelys are in packages and are yellow/silver/white, one small and one large.
