that's a great looking frog! I just got back from the pier, there was a nice little current moving so I was able to see my plug in action, I've been trying make a realistic eel in a large jointed needle despite what I read in the archives about the uselessness of jointed needles, I drilled out the inside of the back section and filled it w/ shot so that it's ass heavy and casts great then levels out in the water, the head section is smallish and wiggles side to side with tiny twitches, looked very convincing as i watched it from above on the pier as the current carried it....I got the micro scales done this weekend and will probably paint the features tomorrow....Dad, I wiil have a difficult time separating this from my hand...but I hope ya love it!
here's a peek at the tiny scaling, I think it works for an eel imitation, I can't wait to see how it looks with a little color on top...

Tagger that mini predator is the coolest thing I've seen in a long, long time. Swap you one of those giant submarines for one at plugfest.

I'm heading out to sea for the next two weeks tomorrow so I'm going to post my picture now, feel free to move it over to the picture thread when you start one. I'm also going to break the rules and mail it out early.
