Anybody notice the high bidder on that ebay plug (as of Friday, 11am). That ID looks familiar, I think I've seen it around here.

I'll bet a paycheck that it's a Habs. Someone replaced the hooks.
I've turned thousands, know the shape anywhere....
I still cant figure out why you guys can't find any Habs needles, on any given day I know where I can find at least 1000 or so....  |

Over the Last Several Years HAB'S NEEDLEFISH Have Caught More "Confirmed" 30, 40, 50, and even 60 pound Striped Bass than any other Wooden Needlefish on the Market today. 2 Over 50lbs. and 1 Over 60lbs. in 2005 alone........... "HOOK UP WITH HAB'S" Your Best Bet For BIG BASS.....

This is hysterical. I remember when John would give us plugs to test. Now they are selling them on Ebay.
Hey, Hab, don't sell anymore needlefish. Auction them off to the highest bidder. Anyone want to bid on a a 1oz purple Hab circa 1995?

Thanks Eben. I think? Been on the boat about 4 times this year, when I can steal it from my ole man, it is after all his boat. But to be honest with ya I prefer the rocks of Newport to a boat any day.
Maybe this will help my cause.
GO RED SOX!!!
Now give me your plugs!!! |

Habs plugs catch fish. His first plugs were a different story but from early 1998 hs needlefish came into their own. I believe it's the way he loads them, the eye placement and the finish. In that order... If the needlefish isn't loaded right it won't work right. I know, I know, needlefish don't have any action but if you fish them correctly you can give them action. I have been trying side to side sweeps lately and it has been effective in rough water. Kinda like walking the dog with a Zara Spook..

Maybe someone will start a knock-off company?
You'd see guys on jetties peddling knock-offs like they do with Rolex watches.
If you look close though, then you'd see the tell tale signs: smudged paint, 1X strong, open-eye Mustad trebles, 
And then the dead giveaway - you'd see that they spelled "Habs" with two b's - "Habbs"

There is someone making needles that do look very much like Habs. A Lawng Eyeland tackle store is carrying them. He also makes poppers and metal lips. I believe the guy is from Vermont. I don't recall if they had eyes but they did have the same length and weight.

OK a few day's have passed and the pain has diminished a little. I only cried for 3 hours last night. So far today I have only broke down one time. This may take a long time to get over.
