They are red sparkles. Kind of a Mike Fixter signature on his Pikies.

Mike perfers that they be called Metal flakes.
Just kidding.

My favorite Mikey plug is a "second" from his discount pile. The thing has been repainted and fished since the eighties so I gues a nude Fixtah would be................... hey wait that dosen't sound right.

Hey look its me taking a hike!


Its only art if it don't catch fish!

Red + white, bland.blaaa,boring yes, do they catch yes, old school colors yes,two-three tone's can't hate them for working well..I don't see anyone crappin about beachmaster color's.I was told by an old fisherman[person],,paint them plain boy,paint them plain.

rule's will get so tight that soon no one will be posting anything,,,shame,,,necomer's/old still want to learn new trick's and gaze uppond the wonder's of artwork/shape's/color's/ size's. without posting one's work thing's will go stale...it's alway's fun to see someone catch a fish on someone's plug and show it off..

I've been lucky enough to trade for some of the sites best builders and took them all when I took my first trip out to the Cape and out of all the plugs
the very first Striper I ever caught was on Ugly (in a good way) painted Winchmaster. And here I was thinking the Pretty ones would be the first. I learned that night that pretty doesn't necessarily mean Fish catcher. the
Blue Fish even Liked Winchy's Plain jane Yellow and White pencil.

Lets see the Pink Fixter That's the whole point of my post. To share pictures of Mr Fixtures Beauties. His paint schemes are simple but very pleasing to the eye. And the finish on his plugs are out of this world. Let's see the Fixters
