Can we show our Crazy Plugs ahead of time or do we surprize one another :eek:

Canalman 02-16-2005 09:00 PM

I'm kind of a surprise kind of guy :D. I usually post a bunch of pics of the plugs after they have been received by all the builders so that everyone sees what they missed. I started mine tonight.

Canalman 03-11-2005 05:29 PM

sanded and waitng for sealer.... without letting too much out of the bag.... when you guys fish swimmers at night, what color(s) do you prefer? I want to use colors that will get fished on these, and I want feedback :smash: :D. Any suggestions? Preferences? Wondebread? Blurple? Schoolbus? Sandeely color?

Nebe 03-25-2005 08:11 PM

Canalman 03-25-2005 09:03 PM

Waiting for eyes, clear coat, and wire......

Nebe 03-25-2005 09:41 PM

Canalman.. the ice has melted ;)

Tagger 03-26-2005 07:04 AM

I want to see pics of what I missed out on ..I already seen Slips plugs .. :bc:

Slipknot 03-26-2005 08:28 AM

I thought you were in this one Tagger :(

Guess I need to make more, then we can trade.

Canalman 03-28-2005 07:09 PM

Eben,

Y'know I was just thinking about that today............ oh yeah plugs.

Redneck had to bow out guys so one less plug for everyone to make... sorry Slip I'm keeping yours. ;). Has anyone actually sent a package out yet? and how far along is everyone?

I haven't moved since last check... they're hanging painted and waiting for finish, eyes, wire and hardware.

-Dave

BigFish 03-28-2005 07:13 PM

I have some small plugs....kind of like Howdy's only smaller for schoolie fishing.....they just need wiring and done if those are ok....otherwise I am behind quite a bit. Work has me very busy the last 2 weeks and getting busier. You guys like small? :huh:

Slipknot 03-28-2005 07:24 PM

Does Redneck need more time? :(

If he's out, then I guess I am not 1 plug short afterall :) so no , you're not keeping it Dave, that is John's plug.

Bigfish, we like ALL plugs :D we don't descriminate. Do what you are able to.

Christian 03-28-2005 08:16 PM

do ...I... like small??
is that a joke?
YESSS!

mine dont cast far, they definitly catch plenty of fish. :heybaby: ...painting...

Nebe 03-28-2005 08:21 PM

I just had a major disaster involving my swap plugs..i clearcoated all of them a few nights ago and when I went to take the wire that i use to hang them, just about every wire was sticking to the nose of my darter. So, when i went to remove th wire, it ripped the epoxy and pulled the paint up with it. I'm feeling pretty bummed about this, as i put lots of love into these and i dont feel comfortable sending out a damaged plug to anyone.

It looks like I have 2 options- ask for more time, (probably a week and a half)

or I can bow out..... I dont want to bow out, but i dont want to hold up the process.

13 plugs is alot to screw up, but i am going to patch them and fish them this season, so its not a total loss.

Breezy 03-28-2005 08:28 PM

i could also use another week, im stuck at school and cant put the final clear coat on till friday

BigFish 03-28-2005 08:55 PM

Canalman...can we delay 2 weeks seeing as some folks are having issues? I can send what I have but would really like to finish what I had in mind for all those involved. :)

Slipknot 03-28-2005 08:59 PM

Look, I want an EBEN PLUG. make them , fix them, do what you gotta do. The fish aren't here yet anyway. Maybe try putting the wire in the plug before you epoxy. You don't want to miss out on this swap guys.

Do your best guys, that's all.

If Redneck needs more time, then give it to him.

I don't think others will mind some extra time.
I got mine done when I could because I knew I'd be under the gun if I waited.

Canalman 03-28-2005 09:00 PM

ok... it's either your plugs or your taxes.... 4/15/05 TAX DAY now becomes.... judgement DAY... PLug DAY... The most important DAY of this MONTH.


Just messing around :). I really don't care what the due date is, is 4/15 good for everyone?

-Dave

Slipknot 03-28-2005 09:00 PM

Canalman, call me tom.

Young Salt 03-28-2005 09:03 PM

i sent mine friday, i don't mind waiting awhile longer

we've all got plenty of other plugs :uhuh:
