Cool Bruce. I love that lure. The only thing I changed from my original is I put a little less weight so it stays afloat. The one I had sank like a rock. It still cast's a country mile.
Chris I am far, far from done. I am also going to Aruba for 2 weeks in Jan. so I will loose that time so need to get an early start. Besides I will be sweating the final operation big time. I will be suicidal if I wait till the last operation to screw them up. P.

I will probably always be gun shy. Don't really care that much if I screw up my own but when they are going to others it adds a little extra pressure. I ain't given up though.

If someone accidentally sent plugs to John E instead of JohnR, would it be a bad thing?

I'll weight them to just float. Brad didn't make then all the same and many sank but they catch fish. These will cast and fish great.

Epoxy? Paul, when you get to that part call me, you might want to use something else if it's giving you fits. I'll help you out.

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.

Unhappy

epoxying 3 plugs a night on a spinner for 8 hours for 30 plugs... is going to take quite awhile...

Domination takes full concentration..
