Goose,
I posted my version of that plug a while back, http://www.striped-bass.com/vbulleti...threadid=4992. Your photos are way better than mine. I need a decent digital camera. This is a simple and neat plug. Casts a mile, simple to make, and if you cast one away, it's not a biggie. Is that Flo Orange under the silver?

ranger
The Skippers I've seen are round, not slab sided. Goose's plug looks more like those slab sided plugs as well.The plug I originally copied for the Bounder was plastic, although I would bet the prototypes were wood because I was able to make exact duplicates on my lathe. I don't remember the manufacturer of that one but I remember there being a couple of manufacturers building this style of plug in plastic. This was in the days of few bass but lots of 3-6 lb blues.

Thanks Tony, it must be me and the way I was trying to explain it.
I hope the plugs you chewed on were not painted with lead-base paint.
Now that plug looks simple to make. Looks alot like tose ones they use on Nantucket.
