Smile Plugfest plugs

Thanks Ed,
For lending your airbrush, buddy! These are a sample of the plugs I've made for plugfest. I've always been a fan of blurple from the first time I saw it. Ed gave me the idea of the silver head... Also trying to layer different colors with scale patterns.

If anyone is interested in any, look for PRBuzz, Johnny D and Fishbones at plugfest.


More to come....

Cheers,
Mike

I'll be there too, I'm giving plugs to these guys because they fished my plugs last year and gave me feed back. I told them that I had fun at plugfest last year, seeing all the different plugs and meeting the forum members.

Just hope I will finish them before the fest.....

Mike-

Great looking lures... I like that brilliant blue... that would be killah with either baby blue or machine grey as a scale color

I want one of those scaled pencils

Squids

I went with a picture of a squid that I downloaded from the internet, I would post it but its copywrighted. The colors were tan and a rust with gold dots.

Plugs in the oven, hopeful to get these rigged before the weekend.

Wow, Mike! I thought they looked good when I was looking at the pics on my phone. Seeing them here, they look even better! Awesome work on them! Give me a call when you get a chance. I'm almost out of wet basement hell and can swing by to help with some wiring if you need it.

Tail hooks

I like to tie my own.... The first 25 are done, just need epoxy. With about 35 to go..... Bought some batteries for my spinner and found out it is toast!

Back to the drawing board....



Fishbones I missed your call, I'm thinking Wednesday or Thursday night?
