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 .......................

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.
