I have never had that issue! Even after hook rash and dings my paint and clearcoat hold great with no lifting or peeling at all!  |
Almost time to get our fish on!!!

Good morning, looks like I'm early...
Here's this weeks projects... I got a few of the darters from last week sealed. I turned a bunch of stuff yesterday. Some 'jointed' bodies to be done with the 'nike' stye head I've been messing with, a few more 6" darters and some that I supersized up to 7.5" to try on my conventional plugging rod which I'm hoping to use more next year.
I'd like a big swimmer in the 3.5-4 oz range and I ran some searches looking for dimensions on the big donny. I could find the overall length 7.5 and the lip pikie 3, but didn't find anything about widths or hook locations ?
I haven't been doing any finishing yet. I wanted to try and get everything turned and sealed first.

Good morning.
That's about where I am. My plugs are turned and marked, and some have started down the machineing belt. I did manage to clear some that have been in the works for a long while. Lurkers...and one offs.
After all the tutorials on darters I may gut it up and give them a try again.

Here's one in particular that I've been working on. Cape Cod wood from a Cape Cod tree, made into a Cape Cod plug. I cut the branch last Summer and dried it on top of my furnace. Flaptail had mentioned that such a plug would be cool..
