The latest from the cellar.......

Two stubby's and one Pencil Popper.

The stubby's are AYC and the PP is Western Red.
Stubby's weigh in at 1-1/2oz and the PP @ 1-3/4OZ.
Stubby on top is pearl white with pearl pink accent in D&R ink.
2nd Stubby is actually purple pearl with black over.
The PP is D&R pearl white with a lavender accent on the top back 2/3rds.

(Tagger this is the new version of what you saw. Pushes a tad more water in the v-wake)

Are you kidding me? Now it's got character like well worn wooden furniture is all. That thing has a lot of fish left to catch and a busy fall schedule! ( I will bring it Wednesday night so you can measure it up though)

Wednesday..........

Talking

Tesye all of them today in saltwater. This is going to be good. I am turning some more. The PP Popper was made for Stifftip but he isn't taking possesion until Wednesday night.

The stubbys, by way of aid from the long tails tied on the 5/0 Siwash actually swim along the surface, The weighting is perfect, I stiil don't know how that happened?

Tuesday night cannot come fast enough.

Nice stuff Steve

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.
