A colleague brought in a couple issues of The Fisherman about a month ago and showed me the articles on plug making. I headed straight to the internet and found this and another board. Guess what. I'm hooked (pun intended). I appreciate all the helpful advice given so freely on this site. Hopefully I will be in your league some day and able to help others like you have helped so many. Now If I can get my pictures posted, you will see how hard I've fallen! :smash: :kewl:

Thanks again!

Much nicer than my painted sticks.....

Are those mushrooms a small natural edge bowl on top of a seperate stem? They look nice.............

Thanks all. The shrooms are one piece with a natural edge left on the cap. I haven't figured out how to weight and hook them so they don't roll, but someone on this site will probably have some ideas!

Yes CaptainQ I made the duck calls. You can find good help at missmallard.com I must warn you, however, making duck calls is nearly as addictive as making plugs. HP

Welcome to the addiction and the site. We look forward to your contributions.

That would most likely have been Canalman's articles :)
