Aaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrgggggghhhhhhhhhh..........I gotta get building....soon.

Back to work for me as well. Sweet work there, BT!

Nice. Very clean looking plugs.:cheers::cheers::cheers:

I need to tie up some matching color tail flags for the big ones and a dressed white/pink siwash 6/0 for the 6 incher... do the tyers use some epoxy and then coat with red hard head fly finish

those look sweet!

I use red thread or matching color thread and Sally Hansen hard as nails polish, you can get it from job lot for a dollar each. I do 4 coats and build up a nice layer. Holds up great and last. I've used the real fly tying cement, it is a lot funnier for a guy who looks like a white power tattooed biker to buy nail polish.

LOOKING GOOD,:uhuh:
GOOD LUCK GOOD BUILDIN:cheers:

I use minwax clear finish, penetrates well and is alot more inexpensive than nail polish. I use the little squeeze bottles and a dynaking glue holder

could ya put that minwax clear over the red nail polish?

jus wondrin....

I don't need to do colors. that's for silly boys

I likie' the pikies! Good work.

Adding a cherry slopehead with a white belly and sweet grain above. Big fattie is over 2" thick and has 2 belly wts just behind the front hook hole. #3 Pikie lip.

Wow Chris, you've been very busy! The pikies look great! I can't wait to see what's next on your "to build" list. Hopefully I'll see you at plugfest.

Pikies look great...like the paint.

Fishbones- I am definitely going to plugfest this feb... recently i have been making some full size bottle head casting plug, a capt Bills swimmer, and few large surfsters.
