I'll be spending a little more time on hand carved bunkers.. the ones I make now work, but I know I can make them better...
Working on another "fat boy" style darter... more suited for calmer water... also going to do a little more with laminated wood, more for weight/action than looks... I've found that west system G-flex epoxy bonds as strong as the original wood and is not effected at all by salt water... one of my test subjects lasted through approx 100-125 fish with only a BLO sealing, no primer or paint...

A good run is better than a bad stand!

Like to see those handcarves, thinking about doing some of them myself. |
