Yea, you really should post pics so we can all tell you how bad they are

I'm not sure there is such a thing as a bad needle

Glad to see my 15 bucks in tickets paid off. Looks shweet

Blame Eben, he had to leave early and I rode with him. It was not easy finding someone to look after my tickets in a room full of fishermen

It's too heavy for most plug., I made a couple needles with it a few years ago. They worked out OK. I found it tough to sand smooth.

hey lower, 2 pics of plugs on this thread and neither one is yours. lets go young grasshopper, they're probably not as bad as you think. it's not how they look it's how they swim. right guys? paint also can do magical things as i'm sure you've seen.
