some spring stuff

I'm still depressed about missing Plugfest thanks to ebola or something like it, but I got to work on a little spring stuff...some little spooks, a herring flat bottom pencil and a little baby squid needle that I think I will be using quite a bit early on ...and a needle that I tried to make look like an actual needle fish

those baby squids look friggin awesome. I see a lot of hook ups with those the fin on the green one is outstanding.. and the rigged rod makes me want to start walking the beaches even more..

hey scott- can you tell me about the sealed belly hook hanger design you are using here. I assume they are wired in to your thru-wire and sealed with some type of epoxy/wood putty. I want to use this type of hanger on my next batch of wooden Smack-its to stop the plugfrom taking on water thru the belly hook hole...

TX- chris
