a few darters
Well I finally decided to try a few darters. They are one of the types of plugs I've never really fished so I wanted to put more time into learning them.
I got ambitious last night and got out the devcon 2ton and sys 3 epoxies and experimented a bit. These 4 came out good (with the exception of a thumb print on the yellow one. These all have mirror coat. The clear coat one that I tried first had fisheyes all over it. Maybe it was too cold for that in the basement. The devcon2 ton which I hadn't tried before was very thick and goopy and I didn't like working with it so I ended up stripping those two with acetone. Wakes you up good at midnight.
These are soft maple, 6 1/2 inch and right around 2.5 oz.
