Do not think these were built recently.

Larger Darter is 7 inches yellow over silver. A real beauty

Smaller one is 6 inches- thought it was a beachmaster but tail is tapered like a musso, tie is smaller and wrap is different?? Also a real beauty.

Maybe George, Paul, someone else?

Yep Billy- Since I stored Frank's stuff I had first dibs.

The smaller one has the epoxy on the tie like a Beachmaster.

Not my tail wrap. Could be a Numbskull. Looks like his wrap the smaller one would only have 1 belly hook though.

Found out G does make a 3 hook one so most likely those could be his.

The green one looks like one of mine. It is a copy of the standard 6" three hook Musso meant to carry 3/0s. Although the three trebles are a curse, the design fishes so well that is the way I use it. It is the best and most versatile night-time striped bass plug I have ever used( all credit to Musso, however, not me). It is a shame to see that plug unfished.........and I would not care or say that about anything else I make. By all means rig it and use it. You'll certainly be thankful you did.

Thanks George. Absolutely will try to fish it this weekend.

I have one of your 5 inch darters that has been great for me.

Hope none of my trebles get the pretzel treatment.

yellow over silver is not mine... I use grommets on all my plugs... I do make some darters that are basically the same as Numbskulls...

Yellow over silver was built by me 🤗 Frank Cap... And Billy D each got one. One herring and one yellow over silver. Went to a better epoxy for the nose loop and some beefier krok swivels. Since that batch. Im still building 😬
