Just epoxied some stuff a half hour ago from last year. First batch in months. Got tons ready for paint that were turned through out the summer. Now I have to babysit the darn things on the flipper and my buddy just called and said the fish are all over the place on his beach with thousands of birds. No wind either as you are below a 100' cliff. Good timing I told him you couldn't of called a half hour ago. I guess it is football today. P.

I hid in the cave instead of braving the storm and the wind this weekend. Turned a bunch of needles and swimmers for some swaps, and started turning some stuff for myself.

Well, I think I'll take a few last flips this weekend and then de-trash the JakeCave and start spinning again for real. Unless I catch that is....

Paul,

Don't worry now that they are epoxied you get to go use them the fish are still there. So many birds it's like casting to an island when theya re on the water.

Sounds like way too much trouble to mess with finishing that stuff up... What a pain!!! send it to me and I'll sacrifice and wire and epoxy them.. You don't want them back do you? They're probably not very useful after sitting for that long.

I might be small.... but I'm slow.
