Banana!! Doesn't look like your normal white or yellow one. You have a new hot color?

Nice George. Looking forward to get back to fun fishing.

NICE! :btu:

You can catch these fish in the daytime???????????? :wall:

:uhuh: Yep 8:30 in the morning and she swam away


thanks johnny

Looking good Slip.

3 bass on Bill 's lures (my dad) that I caught this weekend. Have not been fishing too much earlier this season, but started more frequently recently. Great to catch fish on his lures.
One from MV on his Lido Flaptail (lure almost as big as the fish). One on his classic black darter. The last was on his Purple Pencil popper. Fish absolutely devoured it. All released healthy.

Nice fish, neat story.

No fish yet but these are ready to go
 

Bill just etexed these this week. He did 2 Parrot needles, knowing I wanted them for the Block next month and also left the red Cedar (from an old limb in his backyard) natural because it just looked so good. (He has 3 more to coat). I will hit MV for a few days this week and next and see what I can hook up on his lures. Hopefully next pictures will be of lures with fish, but since Bill had not been feeling well it was nice to see him feeling well enough to get back at finishing some lures. Thought you all would enjoy seeing them too.

Those look awesome Bill! Best of luck with them and hope your Dad feels 100% soon!!:uhuh:

I enjoyed this one. BIG surface hit on a copy of a Bluestreak popper. Just as I imagined it while building them. Made up for getting blue-balled by albies today.

I had built these a year ago but used them very little. Turns out the plug floats much like a pencil, tail down and mouth about an inch out of the water. At first I did not like it and felt it was too tail heavy, but today I realized that it means you can work the plug like a spook as well as a popper. Really neat plug with oodles of big daytime fish potential.

My plug works !

First cast this monster jumped on...

The plug is 8" long, and a bigged up copy of the Twisted Flaptail, sans flap, and weighted to walk the dog. Atlantic white cedar with no belly weight, just tail.

That plug looked so nice in person...

Nice plug. Gotta admire that little guy's spunk.

Nice one G. and Woodrow and hardcore

No camera this morn but I got a 25 lber on one of my small Musso copy darters with the concave slope in canal. Took several fish on it actually but the others were not real noteworthy. It was cool and something I will use more often.

Scary how bass will try to devour something it would probably choke on. Gorgeous fish and gorgeous plugs! Now this is making me hungry....

Goo Goo Man handcarve, first cast with it. Too pretty to fish, but that's what he built it for and this is what happened.

nice. sweet looking plug too

Great work George.

Great work, Glen. All I had to do was throw it out there.

Here is one my son took on the old dependable purple skinny donny. Just an incredible plug for night time bass.

I'm not dead yet....but close.

Hit this real solid 20# class fish(fish was built like a brick) on my old reliable white needle recently. Its actually a modified gag's style body with my signature exfoliating paint...fish like it though:

Nice catch!

I'm still puzzled as to why you crop the handsome lad's face (obviously got his looks from your better half) out of all your pics but leave your mug in???

LOL

That's cheating stocking stripers in a golf course pond.

nice fish. the gag's needles fish really well - until they fall apart which unfortunately doesn't take long at all.

I hear that the new owner/operator of the company (24/7 Lures ?) has figured out the finish issues.

You need to retire that thing. it's been very good to you...

My best ever plug fish courtesey of one of George's yellow/white hab's knockoffs he gave me at plugfest a couple of years ago... That plug would be retired if I hadn't lost it later that night... 41 lbs and released... George if you're making more this winter I need a replacement :uhuh:

That was a helluva fish Dave :btu:

sux you lost the needle but you got a pic of the fish at least
