The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

Stripedbass can't see yellow, its been proven many a time, if you hand over the canal specials I can dispose of them for you, free of charge

Simple is good. Neat pencils, remind me of a Bagley's dub'l-O-7, a small pencil that fished real well for me a long, long time ago.

Nice, strictly business.

One of my favorite color combinations red/yellow/ maybe some white. I will take craftsmanship over a fancy paintjob anyday. Looks like you nailed it.

beautiful tail wraps. They all look very consistent. & Nice & round.

They give off a nice shine. Very even paint.


looks like love went into them

We must be sharing a brain-wave, Karl! I painted some like that last night. Mine are pispoorer.

karl, those look really nice and clean. I bought paint last weekend for some top water I'm working on. Red, Yellow, and white. You can't argue with what works.

the two plain white.. NIB posted once that he didn't think any of us could do just white, no eyes, and leave it alone.. so I had to do it... I like 'em.. but.. I know NIB.. he will say.. the pencil isn't a flat bottom.. the danny needs two belly hooks... well..NIB knows what he likes

BBJ.. I doubt you did anything poorer ..
tell ya the truth.. and Flap, the Senior Angler, and Jake will know what I mean.. (others too, right Slip?).. I was also kinda think early early AM.. at a beach that BBJ and the Senior one frequent.. what was most effective there in the last coupla years?...

Tagger.. these are AYC.. weigh an ounce and a half without hooks.
Beech.. yeah, I bet that would make a pissah Canal Special.
I find it hard to keep it simple, just too easy to get caught up in the glammor, not so much with topwater, poppers (I dont make many anyways) but even Danny's, goo-goo's and Conrads, seems like I always have to mess with them add colors , scales etc. I admire that you are able to keep it simple... I've probably caught more big bass on a plain light blue danny than any other plug, no eyes no B.S., but still i screw with them.. Nice example you've set, I've got some going into the epoxy tonight(all duded up) and a bunch more to be painted, I'm going to try and follow your lead!...K. I. S. S... Thanks for the inspiration! and having the corage to be "first"
