Looks good! Little shorter lip slot next time and move the belly hook forward a tad you'll get better action... I think you need to send that one to me though...

Looking good  Nice Danny, and Nice color, that will catch. Kepp "plugin" away. load up the arsenal for spring.
I dunno, JPI, everything I've made gets wet, at least the ones I've kept. One of my first born got snapped off on a Brewster bay side beach. I have no idea what the odds are, but a guy I know in Sandwich found it there..... 2 months later!

One thing- the nose loop should be horizontal not verticle. The way you've wired it will make it nearly impossible to tune. When the loop is horizontal, you can bend it down ot make it swim on top or bend it up to make the plug dig a bit-
other than that it looks 'Pissah'

Actually, he took it to Rhody for the MDA tournament, and it is residing in his plug bag now. I didn't lose it, the guy I gave it to did, so it's up to him to go claim it. It a needlefish, after 2 months in the bay, it's a bubble fish  tiny bubbles under the e-tex, I guess
