PLUGFEST BOUND!!!

A batch of little swimmers that I've named "gordo" for their portly shape. I've got some other little guys for plugfest as well. I did pretty well on the gordo's last year. They will hang in any current or can be used in slow water. I'm also going to be bringing some other misc shop stuff that I don't use anymore. I've got a portable dust collector and some paasche misc airbrushes. Not sure if they work but could be used for parts. The dust collector works, it was just too noisy for my shop.

The dust collector is for sale. Not sure about the paasche brushes. You can have them. I'm willing to trade the dust collector. I paid about 125 for it from woodworkers warehouse last winter. It works well, just loud. I'd take 50 bucks or some plugs. Billy, I'll give you first right of refusal on it. I'll bring it up with me. I may have some other musso bodies for trade as well. They are turned/drilled. just need to be sealed and painted. Tim, I'll save a yellow gordo for you

Chris, Jen has named her pink Gordo "Gordita". She may need another one as she put that one up on the wall as the start of her plug collection. She said it is too cute to fish...

That upside down chin splash is classic. How many times do I have to tell you not to work on plugs after a long night of boozing and playing Rock Band.
