Plugs
Am I the only nit wit still trying to get plugs done? As long as the humidity stays away I will continue to try and finish them but the fishies keep luring me away

I'm fishing them. Building them is only part of the game, figuring out what works and what needs to be changed is the more important step. You need fish for that, and the fish are here. Including some very substantial ones. You'd think I'd know better.

I'm done.... I've got close to a hundred in every stage from turned to epoxied ( still in the spinner) needing hooks... and that's how it will stay until Mid October.... The fish keep getting bigger every day..no time for playing with wood.. it's time to fish it...

I wish. That plug was mauled by a @ 25lb bass in 18" of water on 5/2, which then proceeded to humilate me (much to my dog's disgust). No way I was expecting anything that size that soon, in broad daylight to boot. Now I gotta find another............. to enter in your contest.

no Paul you're not the only nit wit
I have not even started building my plugs yet 
lost all of April due to wet basement rebuild and re-organizing shop even though i had no work all month. Now I have work 10-12 hours a day and too beat to even fish. I got out this AM only to get chased off the water after about 5 schoolies from lightning, fish ain't worth dying over.
