BigFish Striper Candy Finished!
Its been a long wait and I am sorry for taking so long, hopefully it will have been worth the wait. Slingah will post the pictures of my first batch of plugs sometime today. Kind of a big first batch (22 plugs) a mix of needlefish, pencil poppers (I call them "Fatboys" because of their wide profile) and 4 poppers that I mimicked from the old Gibbs v-cut mouthed poppers from yesteryear.  I just want to thank many of you for your input and tutoring through this process. When I had a question or problem, you were there with an answer or suggestion and because of you all and the wealth of information on this forum, I do believe I did you all proud because without your help, the results would not have been as good as I hope they are. Now I just gotta catch fish on them.....that will be sweet!  So once they are posted, I hope you enjoy!

I was nealry speechless on the quality of these FIRST RUN ever plugs Larry made. Absolutely impressed and I doubt I could make them look that good after 5 years of trying!
Nice job Big Fish

them are nice plugs Larry ! I like the grey popper ! not too many people understand the importance of grey in the water and attracting fish . I caught my biggest 40#+ striper on a grey needlefish . ya dont see too many of them !
good hue of colors !
