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.

"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.

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.

Glad things worked out .. Bob I got yours for this year ,,, also thunder sticks in flo green .. My building has fallen off the cliff .(sorry Bob) Even with no time, I'll try and stock pile some birch to make more .. I find it hilarious , after all these years of studying all the present/past builders ,best thing I build is a simple stick .. never underestimate the power of a needle ..
