None of my John plugs look that pretty---except the cherry blue mack Polaris that's never been used (except to prove to the naysayers that John made the big Polarises to sink, not float).

Just metal Steve, no wood. They sold all the wood and machines to someone in CT, who never did anything with it.

YES YES we DO

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.....
