Give yourself some credit for crying out loud


You`re Leonardo Da Tagginci
Mikey, the basic premise, regardless of placement is the same. Now don't cause any trouble here, that's my job.

Taggers work is good, no doubt and I don't mean to demean his work in anyway, shape or form, but the simple fact, which he asked an opinion of, is that the basic premise has been done before regardless of if it's a needle, flaptail or anything else.

Eddie, rock on Brother, the fish will dig it and that's all that counts.

Why even try.........

As soon as I posted my posty I wondered if you would take it personal.
This isn`t about you Steve....its about Eddie

I`ve been wondering where and when I could fit that in


Now write a big book so I can read it!

Good health and family

slipknot, you and I must really be on the same page.

I was looking at these exact same needles probably 2-3 days ago wondering the same thing! I'm working on a flaptail needle

I never gained any confidence in them and hardly threw them .. I started catching on my regular needle ,, like 10 fish over 30# my first year as well as a 35# my little nephew caught and forgot all about the spinner blades . I was just looking at one the other day and wondering if they were worth the effort . So much to throw.. so little time ..
