first plug ever!!!!

thanks for the compliments. I just put envirotex on last night. I will be getting a lathe very soon.:)

nice job on the popper. belly hook looks like its in the right spot
Hows does it float.? If You floated it Yet

I accidently took to much off of one side when i was sanding, so I put a little split shot in the other side to balance. I aslo put a little split shot in the back. now it floats great and cast good too!
:D

as long as it work right the bass dont care:)

i hear that!!!:D

i got some polaris type poppers i made in early 90's when I lived in falmouth.
I used those dowels and pored lead right in the belly towards the back.
they casted a mile with a p229 and caught
one of My fav colors for popper is yellow with a read head
and white with a blue head.
I used ace hardware flo yellow and green for the toothy ones

just so happens I work at an ace hardware!!
