Thumbs up MAKAI Silversides

Makai,
I'm sorry this is taking so long.... and its going to be a bit longer.... I'd like to epoxy these because the paint job took so long to complete! I'm going to ask my friend Ecduzitgood for some help.....

These should come in at 1 oz or a little better. The research said, grey over white or grey/glass bottle green over white. Hope you like them, as soon as they are done, I'll have the Johnny D call you.....

Cheers,
O.D. Mike

Wow, Makai has a plug named after him! That's pretty cool and a good looking plug.

Are you going to make a Fishbones plug or do you have to be able to catch fish to get one named after you?

Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio

MAKAI asked me to work on a project for him, he told me what he wanted length, weight and paint scheme..... Who else am I going to name it after?

I just hope its what he was thinking of......



Lets hear it John, what kind of plug are you looking for????? Has to be your design....

He has to do something when he's not fishing...but he could fish more!

You know how I like bottle plugs, but that would just be cruel to ask you to do that.
It will probably be a topwater plug of some kind. I'll let you know after my brain wakes up.
