Ask in the plug building forum. Small Musso swimmers, mini Conrad divers perfect size. Always could use a mackeral Diawa SP minnow.

Call me.... I'll get you some bodies turned, sealed and primed. You can paint, rig and epoxy. Thinking eelies, dannies, or darters for you. Here are some of my references for paint ideas.

It will confuse him. He's NEVER seen me fish anything but live bait!

Probably cheaper for him in the long run to just buy a few rather than get into building, or even finishing plugs.....

Get the Manic Minnow by Savage, 1 1/3 oz, through wired, weight transfer system and good hardware out of the box. They will be available soon..

Does your incessant whining make you feel better? How about you just shut the hell up and suck it up? It's a fishing forum , so please just stop.

between blue mackeral and green mackeral, you should be able to find a variety of plugs pretty easily
