Had a blast today!

Well it was a success, thanks to all who participated and learned about lure making today. Got Stripers pours some really magical baits somewhere among those toxic fumes, good job GS. Saltheart and Smokey and canalrat make some great jigs as well.
And Fishpart really cranks on his lathe. I think John found another addiction, not that he has time for another
Bassmaster as usual was being creative. And Jeffsod got a chance to turn some stuff too. Jeff, if you ever lose the use of that lathe your welcome to turn some wood over here sometime
It was a pleasure to see and touch mr.pogies' lures and talk about his creations.
And Krispy, your originality really shows in your plugs, nice job.

I HAD THE BEST TIME TODAY!!!!!!!!!!!

Bruce, Thank you and Melissa again for the use of the hall.

Where do you buy eyes, I finally decided that I NEED some.

I did the best plug Ho'ing possible, I left with what I needed to make more locked away in my brain.
Thank you, everyone for all the beautiful creations that you brought and let me copy.

Mr. Pogie, I forgot the name of the finish you are using. Could you please put it up so I can try and get some.

I believe the topcoat was Envirotex, Ed.
If you need eyes, let me know as I will be getting more soon.
I'll post a pic in the lure forum when they arrive.

Ed, Slip's right it's called envirotex. I've only been able to find boxes that say envirotex lite,I don't think there is any difference. Buy the smallest amount you can. I buy the 4 fl. oz. kit for approx. $4.99 and it will do 20 -25 plugs. Any questions feel free to ask. Good Luck ...mrpogie

Yes, A big thank you to today's gracious hosts, a great time had and a lot learned! I will take you up on that offer to turn some wood sometime Slip! Came home and went right to work on a swimmer to practice what I learned. It was great to meet everyone and look forward to the next plug party.

Thank you Mr & Mrs Slipknot, I had a great time. Thanks to Saltheart for showing me how to tie a jig. Thanks to GS for the plastics. THanks to John, without his board I probably would never have met all of you. Thanks to Slip and John for talking me into trying to turn a plug, and BM for helping me shape,load, and drill it. THanks to Habs for supplying the kits, we will get together to hunt next year. Oh, and I somehow lost your card, if you would be so kind as to pm me or email me the info. It was a pleasure to meet anyone I never met before. I hope the spring will hurry up and get here! Later on.

Bent Rods and Screaming Reels!

That is a sweet finish on those plugs and it's not just for show, they can stand up to a lot of abuse that way too... Mr Pogie, where can the average Joe buy that stuff? Or is it mail order?

John you can get it at any hardware store Home Depot, True Value, etc. I buy the 4 fl. oz. kit kit for approx. $5.00 and it will do 20 to 25 plugs. The box will probably say Envirotex Lite, rather than just Envirotex, the last couple of boxes have said that I haven't noticed any difference. ...mrpogie

THANKS SLIP!!

Thank you Slip & Mrs. Slip, you are wonderful hosts. What a nice shop you have, I'm envious! and the Mrs.' brownies tied me over for the long ride home I had a great time, and as usual met a fine bunch of guys to boot. I got a boat load of tips, treats and tackle. Thanks Saltheart for an awsome lesson in tying jigs. Mr.Pogie, I learned alot from talking to you, your a good guy. BM, thanks for showing me the right way to drill a fingerHABS, Tattoo, Fish-eye, Crafty, what can I say. Those magic booberries had me seein' red n' blue lights trailin all the way home
It was great meeting all of you, can't wait till the next get-together

I'll get back to you as soon as I hear back on the plastic, molds etc, trying to strike a deal. You primarily interested in the 9-10 inch (lurecraft calls it a 10 inch I notice?, never put a tape to it) sluggo, the flat bait or anything else? If I off up the baits, I'll probably post the pricing on my Fishing Page, since I don't think it would be fair to the paying advertisers on this site. I know I couldn't even do that on SOL, Tim would have my balls.

Anyone that's interested, pop me an email with what you'd be looking for, thanks.

GS just post a link here when you've got it up on your page or you can PM them (all but BM 'cause he never cleans out the inbox)...

For those that may question how lethal GS's baits are, hehehe, DON'T

For anyone who wants to learn a little more about turning here is a source for books and videos.

www.taunton.com

go to the store and choose turning............

I have the video Turning Wood with Richard Raffan. It shows the basiscs of how to use the tools to cut rather than scrape. I find I can remove much more wood and get a better finish right off the tool now I have studied how a pro does it.
