TAGGER STYLE NEEDLES
Finally finished out my copy of the tagger needle. I want to thank Eddy for a great design and numbskull for posting the dimensions. I have learned a great deal from others and wanted to thank them for their help.http://008.jpg

post 44, page 2 "I checked with Eddy and he kindly allowed me to share the info on his needle. It is birch, a 7/8" dowel. 6 3/8 long 1.75 oz with 3/0 belly and 4/0 tail siwash .47 nose .52 tail straight taper nose to 1 3/4" back where the plug is .70 wide curve from 1.75 back to 2.5 back where the plug is .86 wide. Straight dowel at .86 from 2.5 to 3.5 back, then a slight concave taper to the tail which is .52" Hook and eyes are at 2 3/4" Two buck shot weights each side of the hook (3.5g each) one at 2 1/4" one at 3.5". Small tail weight (5.3 g). It is weighted similar to the pink one in this picture he posted years ago, although the body shape is more like the smaller green one. It sinks tail down and wakes along top with a slow retrieve. This is a really good design. Thank Eddy when it takes you a good fish. Please don't use this info for a commercial venture." |

Danny, did you do a bead cut to form the needle's nose or did you just do a steep slope or a little of both?

epic!
Will give these a whirl next winter. Dig the olive with purple eye that I've seen in several fish's mouths. |
