Sure way to get another....

.....FISH IT!!!!!! A friend (a lurker named earlybird) brought this by today and asked I make him another. It was an Xmas gift I gave him last year after I'd been trying to copy a Jigman spook from memory (I've since gotten a real one.....thank you). Called it his "dinner plug". He likes to eat bass. Said he was real selective using it to save it from bluefish. When I saw this I decided to make the guy six. No better way to a builder's heart. Made of AYC. Sorry the pics are so dark.

I'd say he got his use out of it
