:huh: you mean Dave did not give you yours? he got 2 last swap. :spin:

AWESOME :btu:

I love clammer yellow

i will make a mini darter

No!!
Now I'm pissed...He's holding out on me. :rtfm:
I'll fix him on the rocks. :bshake: :lasso:

All the same color? I am thinking blurple because my painting skills are limited but a few different colors might be more fun. Paul

Are my little dannies ok? Some of you have one of the black ones, would a yellow/silver be ok?

Hey Slip :faga:!!!!

I usually do all the same color. This is looking like it's going to be quite a swap. :jump:

Paul - Make the needles. If you read more closely you'll see that I said that pertaining to the deadline. Very often, people end up making their plugs 4 days before or (20 days after :D ) the deadline and they all make needles. SO I was basically saying what tobias said... to be creative, your needles are the most intricate needles I have seen, hence..... very creative. :)

-Dave

Fred/Jake... Make the little fatboy danny .. great plug . afraid to loose the one I got ..

Also that off center tadpole swimmer I got from you is pissa too. P.

Canalman, :bl: :devil2: :wave:
you in trouble now.

Hey Fishaholic, that also means that Dave has more tiger needles than me :(

Are your little dannies OK???
:hihi:
ya make me laugh...

no they are not OK,



they are Freakin' Awesome!!!!!!

:love:

BBJ mini-me... in new color :beat:

Thanks, I need the inspiration to clear a path to lathe!

It's gonna be 28 deg. tonight and he may be goin $#@%^ swimming.
That %$#@#$ needle hog... :hf1:

how mini?
I hope not too mini.

I'm glad you're in on this swap John :btu: big fan of your plugs too.

this collection will be unbelievable.

Im making Danny's

with hooks or without?

It will be each builders call on the with or without hooks. I know some will be with hooks because it's part of the lure. If you don't include hooks, please let us know what hooks should be put on the lure for optimum performance.

i changed my mind, im not going to mater a popper.
going to do my flat sided swimmers.

Thinkin a spookish howdy kinda thing, been working with it a while...This is gonna be a sweet late xmas present... :jump:

Isn't a plug without hooks just a stick ? :huh: :bl:

Heys Guys I'm sure by now you know I'm not a plug builder or a Plug Ho Guru like The Bassmaster. So any 2nd's you don't want getting into Public hands can be shipped to me :bl: I'll be more then happy to destroy them for you all
guys :rocketem:

So many times I have wanted to pull that off the wall and fish it. But i just can't do it :hs:,,Slip that thing is too sweet :btu:

you should see my slip needle. its a warrior. many battle scars.

I was just informed the total is now 22 people/plugs

I edited the thread

Now 23 :D

what?
one more for sportguy33? :rotfl:

slip ... just counted 22 on the list .. i didn't see the boss on the list .. we gonna stiff the boss ? :hs:

Plan B I cut and drilled blanks for short fat small spooks. There is a pic of a fish falling off one back on the main board somewhere.....May still be yellow, must consult with the color master....

Can we mix and match colors or should they all be the same? Doesn't matter I would think but I like to mix it up! :hf1:

no,
we'll go over this one more time.

22 guys = 22 plugs, one goes to the boss and the 21 remaining plugs go to the other 21 guys in on the swap.
you don't get one of your own back.

now 23 plugs as of 11-23-05

Usually all colors are the same. Makes it easier for Tobias to "divy up". He is going to have his hands full as it is. Believe me I know.

OK...sounds good to me...I guess it will make it easier for me too! :rotfl:

Just a thought but you may want to put all the info for this swap in the 1st entry of this thread, along with the list of participants. that way if people have any questions they can just go there instead of picking through all of the entries trying to get the right answer....it may cut down on the confusion.

You could also put down what plug each builder is making next to his name, that way not only can you keep track of what's being built, Some people who are still deciding on what to make can look at the list and get some ideas as to what's being made. (i.e. hmmm i see a lot of needles but I don't see any surfsters, maybe I'll make some of those.)

Just some suggestions

My lights just went dim.
21 lathes starting up at the same time.
somewhere a cedar tree cries.

:hihi: - My lights went dim too....

This should be renamed MoAss, Mother Of All Surf Swaps :eek5:

I picked up the wood last night and will start "Turnin' and Burnin'" this weekend.

My plan is to have all of them Spun, Sanded, Weighted, and Sealed by the end of the month....Then I can get them painted and epoxied after Xmas.

All spun up :jump: :wave:

Gonna go pilliage my wood this weekend from the special stash. Hope there is a great selection again. So many different exotics to choose from, hmmmm Gonna be a shame to paint them. :cool:

Yeah I am still trying to decide if I am going Maple or AYC. Sink or slow sink. Decisions, decisions. Probably go all black colorwise. P.

yea !!! make it 22 lathes .. I'm sure nobody here would mind making another plug .. Jump in .. what da ya think... let Nib in ? :yak5:

The more the merrier. The hole is already too deep what the hell. I just keep thinking I am going to get 20 some odd awesome plugs and that is a cool thought. I will be able to open up a tackle shop. Paul
