Well wanted to build a big pikie. Here it is in stage 1, 14" long and 4" in diameter.It was hard to thru drill this momma. Will have 3 12/0 trebles, 3/32" wire and 8/0 swivels . Plug is made out of white cedar.

Gonna need a telephone pole to toss that one.:laughs: :humpty: :kewl:

Be patient grasshopper......No picture till tomorrow after I put the hooks on. It weighs 28ozs. Paint scheme is CCB blue flash.

28 oz pike, newell guy? I might as well as hang this up and attached it to a string to the ceiling and use it for a target kicking.;)

Here she be, finished weight is 28 ozs

Big Wood...Big Fish!
 

Schweet plug! If the big wood, big fish thing holds true....you should catch a 485 pound striper on that!:laugha: Good luck with that!

My needle kick ya pikie arse Newelly :p

yellow flash:hee:

found the bag o glidda:rolleyes:

LOL, I couldn't fit a longer piece of wood in my lathe. They are cool, but no it will never see the water.

Saltys Needle!
 

1075 pound striper!:laugha: All things being relative!:drool:

CS that's PARROT

and not much glitter....that shine is my addition of another paint :D

The big plugs are cool, but I have to admit the largest plug I ever saw was hanging down at the SaltWater Edge in Newport. Must be 4' long.

Probably Hab's needle, black? Someone said it used to be down at Weekapaug but wasn't anymore.

my glasses have to much spray paint on them...everything look yellow:smash:

that needle was at slips last year.....salty check ya pm's.

Yes I think it is a black one. What a monster. When I was turning this plug I just locked down the 5x5 and away I went. Didn't knock the corners off first but should have. Kind of an scary feeling seeing that large piece of wood spinning and getting ready to hit with the gouge. I am going to buy a bed extension for my lathe this spring. Then the 32" pikie will be spawned.

NICE

:kewl: its nice to seee plugs that cant be used. In art school we would be calling this 'denying the piece it's function'... thus making it more special.
good going!

rig that to a downrigger cable an tow it around for a while:laughs:
Big tuna :cool:

looks good! :D

You gotta swim that Newelly..Troll it down Nantasket Beach and watch all the bathers running out of the water ..:laughs:

Pikie Kayak?
 

Cousin Newelly


Can you make a 15 ft Sea Pikie Kayak with a cockpit with room for some fishing gear?

That would be cool!

Tagger, I could use Newell Guys plug to throw at the pain in the a$$ surfers down Nantasket! Know what I mean?:uhuh:

Your certainly big enough to throw it ,,that thing would land like a cannon ball ...:)

stick it in this, get ready, and let it fly! (excuse the cheesy photo please)

when I was in highshool I used to have one and when I went chunking we'd use it to launch out chunks for chumming.... man we caught a lot fish that way...big bass and bloos off Ft. Adams. I've never seen anyone else do this trick to this day, but it works.
