Calling fishing a hobby is like calling brain surgery a job. ~Paul Schullery

There he stands, draped in more equipment than a telephone lineman, trying to outwit an organism with a brain no bigger than a breadcrumb, and getting licked in the process. ~Paul O'Neil, 1965

oh God, I have no idea....I don't even know what the heck I'm doing. I'm hoping to get a duplicator for Christmas so I can get some consistency. Hell, I don't even know what styles I'm making, just getting a feel for the lathe. lol. The only thing I am sure of is my painting. lol

Those look great, build styles that you fish, this way when all your friends are done stealing them from you, and you are left with very few plugs at least they are the style you fish.

Looks good, dude. Especially the bottle opener.

Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio
