Tagger's Spofford reminds me a bit of the early Habs profile, too
Nice needle, BI green too - hope you save one for Uncle Zeke, D... 
When I talked to him last week he said he wants to even the score...  |

I feel like I have seen needles that are very similar in shape to that in shops on the cape. They were made out of plastic. Grand Slam lures maybe? I would much rather have one of Tagger's.

Luds - Spofford needles are still available as far as I know. They are indeed plastic. Tagger decided to make one in a similar shape from wood.

Bob,
I don't think so - I think he threw that wood out before we left the island because it was stinking up his buggy.
