See another hand turned copy in process next to the original. Also he finished a nice medium sized Danny. Finally after his 91st Birthday a few weeks ago he has another 9 inch needle in lathe and a swimmer and medium Danny wired and ready for painting. We are looking forward to Plugfest March 3rd.

I agree. I can only hope I am still plug building and fishing when I am 91.

I regret I have not posted anything for a while but I have been building plugs lately. For the most part I am working on some of the same stuff that worked for me last season, (sliders, peanuts, needles etc) incorporating some new building tips and ideas I picked up during fishing season. Hopefully always improving. I will post a
couple pics of the latest batch when I finish with top coats. For now here are a couple pics of a few from my last batch. Some of these will be going to Plugfest.
