Did somebody say rockets? I have a few ready for tails - cannot make up my mind on feathers and colors. Black feathers and some white bucktail for good measure. Rockets for the swap!

The colors on the rockets appear blue, but are actually black with Violet Pearl X pigment rubbed over it. Grey to blue bellies with a touch of red flash.

Brother ,sounds like Spence talkin'.

The blue thing are off center turned swimmers. found them in the reject box and finished them. The little squids are very slow sink level needles. One of my staple plugs, a skin will fit over them, too. Clinton cobwebs, they realy light up in the flash, don't they? On the little blue things that look like Minne Balls are skin jigs, maple filled with lead. They'll also carry a curly tail.

Hi gone fishing do you happen to have a closeup of that yellow, white, and red number on the right in the right picture above? Looks pretty sweet.
