here's a couple on the customs successes...the flat bottom herring pencil continues to produce and I've managed not to lose it...monster 16lb blue in this instance, and the Mac I absolutely loved but sadly it was broken off by a nice fish recently so back to the airbrush I guess...

Better to have loved and lost Scott than never to have loved at all!!:uhuh: Nice feesh!!:drool:

I'll second that!

Here's a decent one. Dark night, no moon, shallow water, no current type spot, tons of weed, and I took 5 of these in a row fishing a parrot Musso-clone darter real slow and twitchy...after covering the same water with a needle for a single smaller fish. :1poke: Learning all the time.

Nice fish, looks like your "go to" plug for a while. I have alot to learn about darters.

Numb,
Very nice indeed.:kewl:

nice G. great job

sweet! nice fish!

Good thing your hiding behind that fish, I don't think the world is ready to see you in that wet suit given your "physique".:uhuh:

decent fish on a great plug (NS Conrad, one of my favorite swimmers)

nice Lip:).. Good catch

Thanks for fishing it, Josh. And credit to Paul for the lip. :uhuh:

I think this was a pbadad floating needle. Dynamite plug in quiet water. Learned something from this plug.

Nice catch George. Thanks for posting. Thats the best water for the floaters. Good luck.

How would I go about acquiring one of those? Looks like a sweet plug.

You have to be worthy. AND TRYING TO TRADE EELS FOR IT WILL NOT WORK!

Nah, I gave a whole bunch of plugs to Sauerkraut and whatever he is, "worthy" sure ain't it. Might make you stoop to coming to plugfest to get it, however, Mike. :devil2:

MIke if he doesn't give you one I'd be happy to give a fellow Franklinite a few, maybe good trade bait for that eel rod we were talking about. BTW I fished an eelskin one last nite in canal and got nutin, probably operator error though. George and Josh are much better drivers than I.

love this thread.:smash:

Me too, so lets not get off track berating a lowly eel fisher. I've made sufficient accomodations for the tomato throwers in the other forum...

This, I think, is the best swimmer I've ever made. It is a skinny donny with less belly weight than usual and an added tail weight. Cool color too, green cloud. Unfortunately, I needed an Xmas present for this lurker (and the nicest, most enthusiastic fisherman I know), Earlybird. In a moment of weakness I gave it away. All day today I was reminded how much I hate Xmas. This year he gets fruitcake. :wall:

great plug fished by a great fisherman. I need to ho one of those someday. Nice job.

here are a few from this season
