I plan on cleaning out the shop and moving the tools around to get better flow. Separate the painting from the turning to keep dust levels down. Also need to make wood storage for blanks and primed blanks.
After meeting Don and Mike from afterhours and Stifftip at the canal this season, I plan on re-designing some lures specifically for the canal. Canal specials, swimmers and needles.
Had the pleasure of talking to Slipknot about pencil poppers and I can't wait for that build!
Plan on attempting a darter or making a modified bottle swimmer. The stories of these plugs and the fish they catch are the reason I'm thinking of building some!
Learned a lot this season, made some new friends from this site, had fun learning the canal and fine tuning lures. Learned painting and sealing techniques from forum members. What a difference that made!
Can't wait for Plugfest, now that I know what its all about! Larry, that's where I met you for the first time, hope you will be there next year!
Thanks,
Mike
