Tattoo has developed a new " PLUG " to keep the bluefish away. He had to use the newly developed " whittling " lathe...the wood goes on anykinda way...and then, if your right handed.....you use your left hand to chisel your design...and vice a versa. You need to do this to get the proper design and shape. :D:D ..the thru wire design is the secret...no permissions to view its design have been implimented, and if anyone gets any funny ideas......ITS COPYWRITTEN AND PATENTED!!!


....He is thinking of a name for this " proto~type " as I type....heck, if he can mass produce them fast enough...he may even submit a couple for the next Pluggage give away..........:)

..any suggestions for a name....... the Bananna Ramma ?? :D
the Yellow Fellow ??

...Phase I is complete.....the top-water version has been tested, not a single bluefish !!!....He will now add the proper weight to the plug, to get it to the " COW " level depths...He first needed to make sure that the plug would make it through a " Bluefish Boil "...and sink to the Bass without any interuptions...Phase II , is now in effect, the weight has been added and I am on my way to test it....pictures to come!!!


..P.S. He has decided to hold off on the " Bananna " scent option that comes out of the tail end of the plug....via the teaser. There is a tube of bananna extract permanently inserted in the body of the plug and when " jerked ", it slowly trinkles out....but he has 'corked' the demo type....due to all the monkeys on the beach.;)

GOOD to be the KING :smash:

I don't know Bloo, I kinda liked the name

"Banana rama fe fi fo clamma, whama jama, new pajama, getcha camera, you da mana" anti bluefish plug.

It's got that nice ring to it, ya know...

LMAO! :laughs:

Your mental..........

Thats's nothing.....back to the wash room BM.

Yes Master:smash: :af: :laughs: :happy: :cool: :D :( :p

...Phase II was unsucessful, the seagulls wouldn't let the 'bananna' ramma sink. :af: ...I tried going late morning, and the gulls were all over it!!!

..after losing three peels...I decided to try my luck during the wee hours of the night. ...I have decided to activate the tube of bananna extract inserted in the cavity to excite the " Cows, " and entice them to strike!!!.....Report to follow!

Bloo, that picture reminds me of the West Wall in April, well - everything but the banana... There seem to be 2 places that are exceptional for catching birds, The WW and Camp Ellis, Maine - just too easy....

Nice work - we gots to tawlk...

..I just got word about Noyes Neck!!!...Leaving at 9pm sharp!!!

... I just packed some PBJ's ( peanut~bunker and jelly sangwhiches ) ...for those who don't know, and some JOLT!!...I'm gonna run an extension cord out to the Neck, I've insulated my waders with my electric blanket. My hands stink like banannas, cuz when I pulled the cork out, the stuff ran all over my hands...P----UKE!!! I HATE BANANNAS!!!....Tattoo has guaranteed that this will work. He seems to believe that yellow is their favorite color...and the extract is an added " benny ".......:confused:

...A couple of points of interest, YOU MUST KEEP THE PEEL ON THE PLUG!!!...the texture of the skin drives them NUTZ!!..

.. YOU MUST USE A SWIVEL!!.... the awkward shape of this " Wonder " plug...twists your line up like you wouldn't believe!!...remember it has no LIP ...so you gotta twitch, twitch ... yank....twitch twitch ...jerk!....GOT IT?? !!.....REPEAT, ...twitch, twitch ... yank....twitch twitch ...jerk!... If you noticed the construction of the Plug, you would have seen that its impossible to get hung up...because as you twitch twitch .....yank, the curve on the shaft will free you up :cool: ....so you can let it sink to the bottom. Although it hasn't been tested on crabs...so you may want to keep it just off the bottom.

...I'm bringing my digital camera that I didn't get, so I'll post the pictures in the morning ;) ...I'm trying to get FishEye to do some underwater footage for me... WISH ME LUCK FELLAS!!!!


By the way..........HAS ANYONE SEEN TATTOO???....Last I heard he was in his basement...workin on some more " Bananna Rammas "....??? Poor guys probably buried in his work!!!!:laughs:

i can't wait for the next episode, the suspense is killing me!!! I hope it lasts.



brother crab, i'd have someones kohonah's in my claws if i hadn't recieved that camera yet.

Bloo,

Before you leave for the Neck, stop by. Go to the back and knock the special knock. I have fresh fruit waiting...along with a special "vegetable" plug too! Bass LOVE Zuchinni!

ANYONE WANT FRIED BANANNAS???

...As you can see from the Game Warden's picture...I got ZAPPED !!!...Luckily he was there to give me CPR...:smash: ...:laughs:

..at the time, I had a fish on and it seemed to have some size to it....but suddenly from up above..came this BOLT of light...that seemed to be aimed directly at my rod!!! I had no time to move...Fried Banannas, Fried Fish and Fried Bloocrab, all in one shot!!...alls' I needed was some boiled potatoes...and crushed red pepper...

..it may take a day or two to recover...but I won't give up!!...I will keep the crew informed. #$%$%^@ off !!! I went through three keyboards trying to get this message to you guys. It seems that I still have a good amount of Electricity running out my fingertips...I think next time...the Electric blankee is staying home!!

....gotta go....need some rest.....been fighting off these damn balloons from New Year's Eve....they keep sticking to my head!!! Damn Static!!!....

Another LMAO

Bloo,

So what you're saying is that the DEM maintains patrolls on January night but are nowhere to be found when the clam tossers are keeping undersized fish... I got it...

But remember to wear rubber waders and remember NOT to stand on the metal masts of rented sailboats that the optically rectumitis challenged congressman from Rho Dysland has sunk. Even though standing on those masts will get you higher and farther out, you're doing the high voltage human version of sticking your tounge on a 9 volt...

John
Its all about the bananas . They pay special attention to the banana ramma type plug for they know if it caught on there would be no bananas left for the rest of the monkeys at the DEM and DEP . They dont eat clams at the zoo !

...Chris, that explains why he wanted to confiscate my " Ramma " !!...Fortunately it was too late.....the Bolt of lightning had reduced it to a toothpick with some bananna pudding on it! He asked me many questions about it though...after I told him that Tattoo had developed it from scratch...he wanted his address, I was a bit nervous...so I gave him the address of the Barrington HS, and told him that Tattoo would be there along with a few other fishermen on the 15th, who would like to speak to him ..:D

I think I was unconscious after the Bolt hit me...I awoke to him standing over me...( smiling :confused: ) ..He said, " I SWEAR!! I WAS JUST GIVING YOU CPR , and nothing else.....":af: My head is a bit clearer now..but I still can't figure out why my lips are swollen?..?..I was curious as to how he knew I was there...but he said that he could smell the banannas from the Rest Area he was hiking at...He offered me a ride, but with all those men from the rest area in his truck ( he said he was giving them all a ride?? )...I decided to just rest a bit...and drive myself home.

..I'm feeling much better, and will get back to the testing very soon. More to come......

WOW, I think Bloo qualifies for extra chances in the giveaway.

You poor soul! You fell for the old....I was only giving you CPR trick, huh. My wife doesn't even fall for that one anymore!

You should be thankfull that you didn't accept his offer for a ride to "pickle park". Lemme guess, he had some live eels in his truck too???? :mad:



Hmm.....maybe we need to make a peanut butter and 'Nanna plug. It worked for Elvis.



....and yes, Thanks to EYE-BALL, I will be making an appearance at the "Freak Show" on the 15th.

Bloo,

Did you get that jar of Jiff I left at your place? I mixed in some "peanut bunker oil"......... just to kick it up a notch! BAM!

It was a success!!!!....The Jiff worked GREAT!!...It didn't taste too bad either ;)

...I headed out to Naps. I knew NO one would find me out there...no more bananna sniffin' cops offering CPR!!:af:

It didn't take long, on the very first cast I got a hit...but due to my excitement...I missed em'...But not to worry....I landed a nice fish on the second cast...after releasing it, I sent in my FishEye look-a-like...to get some shots of the action. It seems the Bass liked it so much, they inhaled the whole plug...so Tattoo may need to work on the hardware...maybe only 1 hook with no barb. We'll talk about that later, but before the mass production begins.

PUT YOUR ORDERS IN NOW!!! ...we'll talk about prices after...

I knew it.....if it worked for Elvis it's gotta work for Mr. Stripe! :D

With the help on the National Security Agency's top secret imaging software (Adobe Photoshop), America's elite Intelligence Officers were able to determine the location of O.B.L. :

LMAO

...Tattooooooooooo...!!!!!

I got a new idea !!!....what about some white grapes, with painted eyes...and a black dot to imitate some peanut-bunker !!!...we can even inject them with the peanut-bunker oil....I found some syringes at Grinnels Beach...:eek:

...I'm just not sure if I should place a hook in each individual grape ?...I'm afraid they'll fall off too quickly...but I definately think that the group thing will work....kinda looks like a small pod...NO??..

:smash: ....and doulbe.....:smash:

:D!!!!!!!!!!!!!~I'm going nuts!!! :D:D


....HEY!! another great idea!!!....what about a "NUT-PLUG" ??...:D:D


......somebody stop me, PLEASE!!!....I'm getting out of control!!!....

...is it a broken back ..zuccini or cucumber??...:smash:

Bloo, lay off that Blooberry juice ok.

Tattoo, it's all your fault.

pretty funny though.

Bloo,

Go out and by some panty hose, ulness you already have some:confused:

We can make some grape sacks and drfit them in the current over by the bridge.....

oooops, I had posted a picture but it comes out tooooo big....I need to tweak it, to fit correctly......sorry


I took a picture of an actual drawing this time (no mouse this time:))....but when I posted it, it came out huge....how do I make it smaller??....any suggestions?....I'm a freekn' newbie!!!

TRY NO. 2.......HEE HEE HEE....Ok. so I still haven't figured it out......oh well...

..anyways....I need a caption for this drawing...any suggestions??


..the concept was: The Truth about the Bannana Ramma Plug ...They laughed their Basses off at it.....

Bloocrab,

Excellent job as always...I suggest you title it:

Striper Coloring Book for Kids...and Fish_Eyes that paint by numbers.

:bl: :laugha: :jump:

GREAT JOB FISH_EYE!!!

...How many other talents do you have?...I'm gonna call you JACK!!...

..what format did you put that in to be able to color it?...

Bloo,

I opened it in Photoshop 5.5 and then selected specific regions, went to adjust/select colors, where I then altered the CYMB levels in the neutral range...next thing you know, I'm playing with computer crayons.

Here's a cartoon idea for you...a couple of bass looking up at a surface popper, one says to the other "If that was a Habs, I'd eat it" I think that one would take care of your beer tab at Coddington. What do you think John?

BLOOOOOOOOOOOO,

I hope you don't think I'm going to go run out and get a 'nanner Tattoo now.....:D


Yeah and make the title of that HAB drawing......




"It is better to HAB than to GIBB" :D :eek: :D :D :D



Oh yeah Mike, good job staying in the lines.....
