Small(est) Needles

I searched for "small needles" and saw a few posts with pics.

I was wondering if anyone was willing to post pictures of small needles (say under 4 1/2") they might have turned...I've always wanted to throw needles like this, but I don't think I've ever seen any shorter than the smallest Super Strike needles.

Have you tried searching under "pocket rocket"?

not sure if it was you who posted on the other site about a similar topic to this, but check out RM Smith's "sandeel" plugs he came out with a while back. not really even close to the pocket rocket's weight, but they still cast decent.
