Took some time on Friday and swam a few of the plugs at the local river. It was pretty windy and the middle of the outgoing tide.
Big Fish - Great popper casts like a bullet, moves a lot of water, has action when slowly reeled, great paint.
Fish part - Your spook reminds me of an old guzz ballerina plug I had. Great WTdog action, can be swum up top or a foot or two below. Casts great. This will be in my bag alot. I am a sucker for a topwater plug.
Karl F - When I thru your plug up current, I backlashed my reel. so as I am pulling the line out of the reel, i look at your plug which has started to swing in front of me with the current. The little guy has a great little wiggle all on his own. I fix the baclash, start to reel slowly and he starts swimming with a nice s. Paint looks great in and out of the water.
And the last one I had time for was
Striperhound - What can I say great paint and great action- The purple really comes out on the back when it is swimming. I havent decided if I will fish or hang. But it seems a shame not to swim such a great plug.
I will get to the rest this week.
By the way, I cant say it enough, thanks for letting me participate and Andy thanks for putting it together. I have only been building plugs for about 14 months and counting the swap have only finished about 50 plugs. This was a great learning experience. I am definately in for next year. If you have any problem with my plug let me know and I will replace it. Even if you snap it off, I will make you a new one. It might take me a year and a half, but I will replace it. That is all.
