I wish I had your skills, never built my own plugs. I do, though, use many wooden plugs, own many dozens. Even with professional plugbuilders, there is a wide variation in how their darters swim. Building a good one is quite an accompllishment. Let us know how it goes, and congratulations on building it.

Good to see you kept on trying till you got one right
Mistakes are how some of us learn.
Darters are not easy to make consistantly, sometimes you get them and they roll upsidedown or don't dart, tough plug to build

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.
