Man, it's gonna be a long winter up here. a cod fishing trip in the works and a plug party?!?! I just gotta think about moving south. Hmmmm, now I think I can just fit the Shop-Smith in the Ledge-Sled and it's not that far a drive to Rhody......

Hey Slip now that BLOO is off the list can I take his place?:p Dont have any plugs but will bring chourico and peppers;)

plug party
 

SLIP, Any room for me SLIP ...... HAVE STUFF, MAYBE BRING MANY SWIMMER LIPS. J HABS

YOU SPOILED IT HAB.....you were going to be the "surprise guest"


You can ride with me....

Just don't tell anyone, oops.
I have first dibs on the swimmer lips.


OK, do I have to put on an addition to my shop? We'll fit everyone somehow, but carpooling will help with parking. I'll send directions by email soon.

plug nazi

Up Yours:D well??????

That's right , I'm a bluefish killer.
Look he's got my finger! but what does BM do? he snaps a picture of course :)

I live in Quincy and have an Expedition, anyone wants to carpool with me it's ok, I can take up to 5, providing I don't have a deer to throw in the back.

Slip, you are the man.....should we bring food...or just money for it? This is a sleep over right? :)


BM with all the bodies in Slip's shop its going to be easy pickin's :D

Like taking a 9 inch sluggo off the hood of the truck, or like swiping 3 eel skin jig heads from the van, or....well you get the picture.

Beware of the security cameras :)

Slip, with decent weather and a plug close to the door, I can set up outside.

Specialist how about a side trip hunting first?! Getting some jig molds 2.5, 3, and 4 oz. bullet heads and another for shads 1.5, 2 and 2.s oz. perfect for shads and sluggos in the ditch. Still looking for a skin mold and bulk supplies of rubber, GS interested in marketing any rubber?

Yes sounds good. I always use slugs, but maybe bring some birdshot to provide security at the party.;)

plug party
 

hey Slip ,we met at shell point last spring and I've been lurking for awhile now. got room for a novice at this shindig? I've been tying flies for several years and would like to learn something about turning plugs. I want to learn how to make the old fat beachmaster darters . From the pic's you guys have posted have been incredable. Hope you'll let me learn a few things.

Hi Jim, yes I remember you. I also ran into you at Pips parking lot and at M&D's in Wareham.

We have a pretty full house so far, about 16 people or so but 1 more shouldn't hurt. There will have to be some onlookers anyway.
I was hoping to be able to have a few setups for different operations happening.
It should be good to get together and meet some new faces as well.
I hope to have some of the cabinet jobs out and delivered that are bogging down the shop right now. Hard to predict how cramped it will be in 4 weeks though.

Umm, striper heaven, I don't know if you noticed but nightfighter is from Mabblehead on the north shore of Mass.

Krispy, you coming too?

No, I don't think I'll have any tubebraid left.
I have an air brush, kinda cheap one but it's an airbrush.

I'll be bringing rubber and a big bat just in case people get too grabby (BM?) :).

who me:D

Slip, Crazy question but do you have a grinder? Like to keep my tools sharp......... just in case anyone gets a little grabby:D

Chisel sharpener
 

Oh yes Fishpart, I do have a Makita sharpener. It has a water stone in a bath and a grinder. Ya have to keep them sharp. :)

So what's the final scoop on the plug party? It's Sunday 12/9 right? What about times, has anyone posted anything on when this thing starts? Let's rock and roll....oops sorry slip....bad choice of words :).

Saturday 12/8...6am at Slips House. :D

Eat me .......................

.... that's a fine manufacturer of needlefish plugs and looks to make a nice swimmer too.


Ya GS, that's right it's Saturday Dec 8th got that? Saturday . come around 10 am or so. I heard you were buying breakfast :)

We can order out for pizza for grub.

How many lathes we got coming?
BM, you bringing yours?

NoSmoking

That bandsaw is going across state lines that day.....:D

I will be bringing a couple of fresh bucktails with me. Slip you put directions up yet? I only need the address I am pretty good with a map.

Saturday, Sunday, you say potatoe, I say potato :). I had the same problem with the Cod trip, but I would have done better had I showed up this morning LOL. Yeah, I'll buy breakfast, got lot's of grubs, crawfish, and worm immitations :), some with special sauce.

Specialist, good and bring some thread so we can tie singles for the back hooks.
