Yellow Floyd Roman Dart n' dart

Made this repro for Chef Chris he has loaned me a bunch of cool antique plugs by some of the master plug makers.


Fun to switch between the 2 line ties to see the difference in action.

Thanks again chris for making me this one. I know a few spots where I know that plug will crush.

Your welcome to any of my other beaters too.

I love the other plug that you sent too, wish I had it last night.

Tried to get a decent swim video of this blue/white dart n'dart, and the yellow sizzler this afternoon... the glare made it too hard to see the
plug subsurface.. I will try again in the morning... here is a beauty pic of these 2 plugs
