Custom Wood Fish 2013
OK guys, let's see what gets eaten this year.
Here are a few to start it off.
First is a 30" fish that liked a 5" darter off a quiet shallow beach.
Second a 6" Musso clone and a somewhat better fish that apparently was on its way to P-Town.

No picture but a 30+in. on a "Numbskull" 5" darter. White. First cast, nevertheless.

Had success with pikies last spring, so I replenished my stock with a nighttime color.

Smallest pencil in the bag comes through again.
Very cool morning with a water temp equally chilly, my toes were cold standing in the water!
But after making a diligent effort, switching from plug to plug to plug, Larry's 1 oz. pencil came through so I could get my Jones' taken care of.

This was my first keeper sized this season on a Blondterror plug. One of my canal pencils red head, yellow upper/white belly. Fish was 15 lbs on my boga and 32-33 inches.

Nice fish, Chris. I had a lot of luck with the yellow red head canal pencil you gave me a couple years ago. But, it's a bit beat up from all the fish it's caught, hint hint. |

I must need to sharpen my plug ho'ing skills, lol. I was hoping you'd put a 2013 model BT in my hands. I'll definitely keep using this one and hope I don't lose it. I've already changed the hooks a couple times. |

No pic, but got into some bluefish this a.m, with a small pencil I finished this winter. Felt good to be on the board.

Visited my dad Bill's marker that was just installed this week at Bourne National Cemetery Friday then caught a 26" bass (missed several others) that afternoon on his yellow pencil with his signature red throat. Will be throwing a lot of his wood this year ( as usual). He and I always talked about me " visiting" him when I fished to cape, an easy promise to keep. Looking for 1st 2013 keeper on his wood, but I am sure it will come soon.

Got this low 20ish fish this morning on a 2.25oz skinny pencil in "great white" color scheme. Pic doesn't do the fish justice, but it went airborne several times during the shallow water battle and was a real pretty fish when it hit the rocks.

This guy inhaled an OD Mike 2.6 oz. pencil last week. That plug's done pretty well for me so far this season with bass and blues.
