It will have to be tomorrow.... I dont have any pictures here, the darters are a Jack Fretch copy, as well as I could do through the several sketches I have...

I made 18, all but 3 swim pissa... and two out of the three I was able to improve by putting a 4/0 hook on the nose hook, a 2/0 6X gladiator on the rear belly and use a teaser tail instead of a treble.. the last one is just a turtle, it refuses to do anything but dive... go figure...

Joe - I use a spring attached to a swivel to help in hanging my plugs. It also allows you to spin them while applying the finish. Homies have them in just the right strength. That rig looks pissa. Excellent job as always - your usual work.
