It was a nasty day, but I couldn't wipe the persimmon eatin' smile off my face as we bailed fish. Good day.

Cool stuff. Very simple but subtle at the same time. Darter planes top and bottom, tapered body with big head to get some sway, bucktail for a jointed effect. Do you weight them so they sink close to level, slightly tail down? Looks like you might be onto something good there.

Ok ... this is like my second batch of handcarves .. I like doing it ,, my compulsive behavior mode slides into hobbiest.. I don't care about making a bunch of plugs .. Stuff I'm posting is stuff I want to fish next year.. I've been admiring Gary2's stuff since day 1 and Numbskull gave us a lesson .. I ran with it .. I'm knocking off plastic and some G2's not ready yet . This is Cordells Big-O ,,, Gary2 also inspired by this plug .. bottom one is real deal .

Nevermind that, Paul. Let's see those GooGoo eyes you're hiding. And you, Flap, I know you're hoarding some sweet stuff, so let's come clean.

That green one with the blushstripe would take me a week to put those dots on. I can't wait to start some of those.
