I got 3 needles from John,, a donation to the site. With the increase in value both monetary and sentimental, I was contemplating whether or not to fish them.

I didn't know him well enough to know for sure, but imo, I think he'd want them fished.

Just fish em man.Fishing lures are made to fish.John was a legend in the surf and a lure building master.Fishing them is what they were made for.If he's up there looking down at all the people collecting,putting on shelves and dusting them I think he'd be upset we aren't hooking up more 40's and 50's with them.Thats is what made his lures what they are today.Catchability not collectability.I only have one of his needles left and I'll fish it until it's gone.
