I just came back from the river after testing that darter I showed you:happy: :happy: :happy:
I can now say that I WILL be making a template of this one before it gets lost:D Who needs maple when AYC works well?:happy:

I tested a bunch of other plugs at my area 54 and was very pleased with the outcome. My 6" pikies are gonna be a smash hit. you should see them wiggle/waggle:drool: My dannys swim excellant too.

And that big jointed plug I copied from one of AdamR's plugs, I think I should make more.
I also swam both sizes of the Mr. Wiggly and that large size has EAT ME written all over it. Those plugs are going to be responsible for a lot of fish this season.


It's getting closer:bounce:

Heh heh heh. Kewl.

Slip - you don't know what a heartbreaker of a fish I lost in Nov on your 3 oz darter. :smash:

And I was thinking how silly your question to me was when you gave it to me: "Do you think it will catch fish?" :laughs:

Answer: "YES!"

Who needs maple when AYC works well?

Lets see
A new member of this board has a bunch of AYC / AWC was looking to give it away.;)

I don't think he has found a home for it yet.

I do know he is asking a few questions on how to finish plugs. Maybe if you help him out he might be generous :kewl:

Passngas (Chris) would like to know how to finish plugs. He has an outlet for a good amount of AC.

Maybe you guys can get together.

Doods,

My buddy Hans works for a roofing company here in SW CT. He had some leftover wood from a carpentry job that he was going to burn in his fireplace.

It is mahogany and is ready for the lathe.

Does mahogany work for plugs?

If so, anyone want a couple of plugs worth?

mahogany will not work for swimmers, it miay be ok for needles depending on what kind of mahogany it is. You could always use it for poppers and maybe even Dahtahs.

BM - we'll talk again if you want. We can work something up.

Now I know a lot of people will get peessed on what I am about to say here but BM, you should not be giving away all of your work for free, at least not right now. I know a few of us would be happy to buy some instead of just taking advantage of your being a nice guy and all.

I actually have a couple ideas that I would like to swing by you & slip and a couple of you other plug guys... When the time is right

:soon:

Yup. I know building plugs is a labor of love for him...but labor is labor and time is time.
