A pair of trolling plugs. These are actually my first turned wood about a year ago. I made the mistake of forgetting about them in the sealer for 24 plus hours.:crying: The wood is 30 year old sugar pine so they sucked up the sealer and it took a good 6 months for them to finally dry. I had to fabricate the lips. I used the Gibbs trolling plug as my shape. I just went bigger. Still need to wire them up. Any recommendations on the hook size. Another problem I am encountering is I need longer swivels because of the larger dia. of the plug. Thanks . Paul
