posting my firsts

Here are a run of different plugs that myself and friend have been making. Feel free to leave feedback, positive or negative.
The 2 long ones are 12" maple needles. They weight around 3.8 - 4 oz.

The other pictures is 9" maple needles that I will be fishing tonight. Hopefully I will be able to post a pic on the other thread with my plug in the mouth of a big slob!

They all look delicious to me.

But to really know for sure you'd have to send me that blue/black one so I could take it for a test ride to one of my spots.

Insanity is a long and winding road ... I think I finally made it there.

Look good to me, though 12" for a needle seems a bit hopeful. Then again, why not?

Thanks for all the compliments everybody! I went to put some of the needles to test lastnight, but the fish never showed up.

Awesome needles. Bring them here to Long Island. We will catch some fish with them. The fish are on needles in the Sound on the North Fork big time.

Sounds like your all set then to hit the north shore. Get your Mom to get you the night fishing permit for your vehicle. There checking after Memorial day. You don't want a ticket.
Sent you PM Mr Krinkle.
