you are correct pisrfcstr, I made one outta maple last year and it was too narrow in front, so of course these came out to wide in front, you guys have probably BTDT. Maple was too heavy so these are AYC with a .24 oz in the tail, I'll test and adjust once the season starts. BTW, I use McClusky's Marine Varnish to seal maple and birch it dont penetrate nor is it as durable as like linseed oil or minwax but it's much much much easier to work with. I also made a couple of Mag-Darters that I gave to a buddy for testing.

Ferret,
Nice work Those Dannys are sharp I did a mag darter inspired plug last year, it evolved into something different however. I would like to see a pic when you get around to it.

Really ,really nice set of plugs there Ferret
You did very well with those,once you put the eyes on and cast them out, I don't see how the bass wouldn't want to eat those creatures
