Plug Handiwork

I'm getting the sense that there's some real talent with some of you guys. I still buy my plugs (and rods), most are plastic. Lot's of Super Strike bottles, needles, and darters. But the plugs I love to throw are the habs needles and Tattoo's swimmers and darters.
I don't know dook about building plugs; and the jigs that I tie look like the hair of the wicked witch.
Look forward to learning the fine art of plug building.
My sister-in-law is a furniture maker--this could, down the road, be a real plus.
I also am excited for Plug Fest. Simply listen and watch.

I'm going to bring a very cool wooden lure, which I found on a beach in Japan. I think you guys might like it.

You got that right Goose,I'm from Jersey, there are guys here that make plugs and do a good job, but nothing like these guys do here. I'm just getting into it myself and my goal is to be half as good as some of the work I've seen here. These guys have it down to a science.
