Thanks for the compliments guys.

The guys on this board make some awesome looking and innovative stuff. A lot of what went into these plugs came from the info gathered here and I just want to say thanks!

Hopefully I'll feed them to something else.

For comparison, the big blurple darter is 7.25 inches and the pencil is 6.5 inches. The angle of the picture is a little deceiving. Here's a pic of the blurple before paint.
