Here are a few things I have been working on.
A squid darter, the paint work was inspired by a flaptail squid, Greek had given me, lots of time into this one, redesigned my darter & am happy with the darting motion.
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!

A few more,
6 1/2" Nike, borrowed an original off of Gremlin, Thanks Jamie!
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!

got a few goodies for my bench. My cousin made me a 24 can spray paint holder, free's up a ton of space and my dad dropped off an old fly vise and table for me that will fit my salt water lures!!

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.
