I Am A Little Surprised......

what with the long, miserable winter and many of us diligently building for the upcoming season that we really have not seen alot of new plug pics posted? Any of you guys holding out? I sure would like to see some new pluggage!

Almost time to get our fish on!!!

the squid is the same size and shape as the atom 40..was spinnin up a few atoms when I thought of rearrangin the back end.

the 2 pc..squid...back end is from a hard ta find vintage and I just added my own head an cut it//jointed.

the ballerina[my childhood go to plug] is made out of very old pine from exterior doors.

started carving shore birds an decoys when I was 14[long ago] then started bangin nail's after school..that turned into furniture/kitchen's/custom moulding/reproduction's of all kind's....then since I had all the tool's /wood know how//paint etc. I just switched over to building plug's as fun time..plus I've been fishin since 9 so I kinda know what works and what don't.

ps...been buidin rods since 73 an that got abit boring so that helped turn me on to plug's too,,something different.
