First time

Iv'e been lurking on this forum for a long time now but this is my first post with my plugs. Still learning, got a long way to go... Well here are my latest plugs.

Top one is around 4,7in and 1,4 ounce.
Bottom one around 3,9in and 1,1 ounce.



5.1in and 1.2 ounces



Around 4,7in and 1,5 ounces (no epoxy, just white color and glass powder used for drawing lines and signs on roads).


Around 6,7in and 2,3 ounces.


7in and 2.3 ounces




7in and 2.1 ounces



1.9in and 0.35 ounces






And a couple of squid catching plugs




Hope you like them, any advice or criticism is very welcomed.

Thanks guys! Stripercrazy these are my first plugs with lips so I went with vertical nose loop. I think they swim great so I left them as they were. My next batch is geting sideways nose loops and we'll see if it'll make any diference.
Montauksrfcastr all are done with lathe, except for the flat sided swimer, which is a handcarve.

Really cool stuff. The squid jigs are the nutz. Love the old style Pfluger color scheme (blue over silver over yellow), too. Welcome, and thanks for showing them.
