Coolest needles! Love the top one, got to see one at the SWLCC & fell in love with the shape.

Nice job!

Reduced the tailweight a bit & made 2 different versions, single & double hooks, also AYC & sugar pine, added a little more belly weight in the single hook version to compensate, this plug has a darting motion that is very awesome!
Not sure how the original swam, but am very impressed with them.

Next batch is some skinny pikies Fatneck & I made started messing with last year.

& a few more darters,


See you at plugfest!
Nice plugs Glen! Squid darter , sick!

Calling fishing a hobby is like calling brain surgery a job. ~Paul Schullery

There he stands, draped in more equipment than a telephone lineman, trying to outwit an organism with a brain no bigger than a breadcrumb, and getting licked in the process. ~Paul O'Neil, 1965

5 1/2" Nike, played with them a bit and although the original was unweighted I found them to swim better with a bit of lead in them.

Handcarves are my new obsession! The yellow one is a 7" redfin copy, the middle one is an 8", I wanted a slightly larger plug, the 3rd one is 11" around 4 oz , the mackerel paint was done by Jmac, they look lifelike!
Amazing work Glen, those Nikes are serious. stunning like always.

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

Beautiful stripper. Have you built others?
What thickness are strips & what's finished weight?
Great job!

p.s. I just found your other post concerning stripper kayak.
