Noises In My Head
 

Well after years of fishing wood by some of you guys and fishing regularly with some one who is constantly designing in his head.(The Greek) I decided to make some plugs for me to fish. I like the old styles that are simple and do not require a huge whare house of components to make. I started out with what I was looking for which was a large slow swimmer. I bought a cedar dowel, cut the face, put in some screw eyes and took it for a swim. I put cut hooks on it first but the split rings gave it life at a slow speed.

I like a shorter waggle for fresh water bass so I made a few for that purpose. Ted got #2 that I made in his favorite colors but I didn't take a pic of it. These are what I did over the weekend and the scaled one was built and painted by my son. He always has to out do me.:laugha:

Does your son out fish you as well too :wavey:

Nice Poppers

Go get'em Max! :walk:

at first
 

i thought a strange mushroom got into his salad :faga:

Ya got me fiddling a bit with these as well. I weighted one yesterday to float back 1/2 under and water at mid face. Took a serious tail weight and a big slug of lead just behind the front hook. Probably test it Thurs. Looks interesting, as do yours. Welcome to the game.

Thats the idea. Was always good for largemouth.

Yes he does!:smash:

Bill, he already is eyeing up his Gimpy to try to copy!:)

Numbskull, right now I am still playing with weights. I have been putting them pretty much in the same positions just different amounts. I haven't come to any conclusions yet, but everyone so far swims good enough to fish. Going to do some more testing today.:kewl:
