Been a while

Haven't made anything in a long time, so I got an itch recently.
*Needles are maple, 1oz., 5". Weighted fore and aft on the wire
*Purple striped poppers are also 1oz., 4" made from swamp cypress and are a smaller version of a popper that I made a couple years ago that has produced very well.
Yellow poppers 1.25 oz., just under 4" made of port orford, yet to be tested.
The fat purple scale popper is a miniature version of the Arbogast Scudder.

Sorry SH, those are spoken for, a couple are headed to RI and some are for father's day gift. Thanks for the praise but I am really rusty. I'm not real happy about this batch. I guess I have to get back into it more and get back up to speed. And when you have people sending plugs like these it's hard to match the quality.

Bill, what does mean These emoticons confuse the helloutta me. Have you been out? I had a decent fish this eve on one of my pencils and some smaller fish last week on one of those cypress poppers
( I gave you one a couple years back, the green one, no?) and small plastic plugs. Those Cuttyhunk poppers you're doing are sharp

Ken;
The emoticons only mean that I got all worked up when I read K heads were on the lathe.
Yes you gave me one of those poppers and I still have it. You gave me a pencil as well.
Thanks on the Cuttys. I really like that plug. They weigh 2.4 ozs and cast like a bullet. I am going to be making a few more (they are very popular) let me know when the k heads are done. What color do you like?
Bill
