Collection NOT, Tyler is sure to give any plug a thorough testing and if he can't make it work then time for that plug to go to the scrap heap!

True Phil, he likes to catch at least one fish on them before he puts them in the "collection" ..I can't blame him for that.

a week and a half until plugfest and NO ONES talking about it... whats the gig no one working on anything?
I've been turning and burning for three nights just to have a few "extra " things for display..

I'm going to have my display ( upgraded) of how to make a 2 hook darter...

I'm also going to have a bunch of jigs and fixtures, this year I'll have self expalanatory ( yea right) pictures so i dont get so many "what's that for" questions...

I'm going to have the rigging display.. showing some common ( and uncommon) methods of rigging..

I'll have a display of various jointed plugs including my giant jointed jitter bugs.. as well as a "few" plugs for viewing and or trading..


I know Professor M has ALOT of neat stuff he usualy brings..

Numbskull always has fascinating dispalys as well..

so.. who's got what?

Been working on various batches steadily for awhile. Should be ready to rig some tonight and be epoxying tomorrow.Playing with some color shifting paint... Making adjustments on some newly made profiles for the vega, and hope to get some others done before next Saturday.

Making up a number of masters with hook, eye, and weight markings, right off the lathe with the ends on. I've set up a few trades of these with folks as opposed to the finished plugs.

Still trying to perfect the cutting of a popper and pencil mouth. Need to get a Kudzall ball rasp I guess. Questioning if a cupped mouth even affects anything on a pencil....

Anyone bringing AYC for sale?

I never found it made any difference.
