Sounds like one of these (the mackerel one).
Interesting story on these two plugs.
The white one was sent to me by the most active and knowledgeable collector/seller on SOL as a Pichney in trade for an old school BM small darter new in bag. It is the crudest built plug I have ever seen (the photo hides the ridges in the body), and the tail wrap is opposite every other Pichney have so I think I got jobbed and got a Lupo (maybe built on a pichney body) instead. I was too naive to question it at the time. Whatever it is, it is painful to look at. (I did get two Pichney SS for two large BM SS in the same trade so not all was bad).
The mackerel, on the other hand, was bought for short money along with a mackerel gibbs also on SOL. Initially I thought it was a very classy homemade and I was pretty ho hum about the deal, but the more I look at it the more I'm sure it is a Pichney....and a very sweet one at that.
You never know.
