A few so far this building season

I don't post here much so I figured I'd share a few of what I've been working on this season. I've got a new found obsession with bottle darters since my first three swam right off the bat. They are the hardest for me to build but most rewarding seeing them swim. I can't wait to fish them all

This bottle plugs look cool, never seen a small one like that.

Those jointeds are killer, love the black and purple one.

Paint looks great!

Good looking load of plugs you got there. Always been a fan of purple over black and of course yellow...hard to beat colors.
