Congrats Don thats one hell of a fish.

They're gonna keep callin' us "cutters." To them, it's just a dirty word.
To me, it's just somethin' else I never got a chance to be.

Always liked that plug...............
Casts like a missle, just never got it in that color, Dadgummit  !
Am still hopeful with the fatboy slider in herring.
Some gray dawn, appearing in the surf close to you...................WHAM!!
That puppy will be pounced upon, the hooks will be set, and SHE will be Miiiiine, the COW of my dreams; oh, YES, she will be mine!!!

Very nice! What an awesome feeling that must be to start with a rough block of wood, craft it into a piece of art and produce a huge fish like that. Great job, end to end!

Congrats Don. I'm sure it's incredibly rewarding to do that with your own plug.

Good going Don!!! Nice release too. You should carry your own camera, you need PR shots of your stuff anyway...don't you? 
Hopefully we can swim some wood together in a couple weeks. |
