The past revisited
 
1 Attachment(s)
The top one was made by Larry on Long Island and sold through the Surfcaster back in the 90's I believe. It is the only real one I have so I made a few more to fish this season. I used Upol as a top coat to see how it holds up. My feelings are that the VMCs will tear them up though. Only time will tell. These were made with white pine and work just like the original.

Gary That plug has some killer krazy action.I have one of the originals.Way too scared to thro it.I made one last yr for PA Rick when he rapped a rod for me.I know several northern spots where it'll be abused.An I know of several i havn't been to yet that it'll get a work out in.I'll bring it to the next meeting to show ya if ya want.Maybe u can make some.u know how i make plugs like a turtle.I got a little fire under my butt lasted like 2 days. i made a few plugs MACS get epoxy tonite.I will have it this weekend in Gillete along with taggers needle..............

MAC 03-23-2006 06:03 AM
