Forget the seals, with those beauties the fish around Chatham have no chance this year.

I hope to have a partial "unveiling" this weekend on what is being and been built for the '07 season. Course a couple are top secret till the plugfest as I am torn as to which of several will be entered. I rather like having that dilemma for once. I know I will get smoked by a handcarve but the most fun is the anticipation of what we will be up against.

Pics this weekend of a few Fred.

Why even try.........

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.....

OK after reviewing this thread, I am totally in awe of the work being created by the members. Tagger - we are not even going to compete in Plugfest if you say you have a secret weapon to unveil at that time. Beautiful work. We have to thank Numbskull for the inspiration fir all the creations. WOW!

Most pissa bottles, Scott! Very nice line-up you have there!
