Nothing with stripes yet but got something to eat some wood. Actually the plug is made from sign board. Very light weight and makes a very lively plug. I contacted an online sign board company and they were offering the board in three different densities. I got a free trial pack of three boards, one in each density. This one was made from the highest density board they offered.

A "little something" to get things going, actually a very little something. But its only April 25th and I'm liking this GooGooMan baby donny already. Cool subsurface action, almost a cross between a darter and a swimmer. Works well really slow. Neat plug with ton's of potential.

Time to get this thread cranking. Here is a 14 lb bass and I practicing our Linda Lovelace imitations. That is a 8" Musso surface swimmer she inhaled (and illustrates the bit about tail hooks being non-critical).

Nice pic George! In all the pics I have of fish on plugs 99.9% of them have the fish on the belly hook! (That being bass of course).
|
Almost time to get our fish on!!!

Congrats on a nice fish! Pencils are my favorite spring plug. That one has a nice look to it. |

Its funny you say that...although it wasn't a trophy I was quaking a little once I hooked the fish, mostly in disbelief. I was almost too nervous to get the camera out of my waders... 
A good friend asked me last week if I still get excited over fishing even after doing it for most of my life... |

retire that plug now before you lose it to some sharp toothed fish.
congrats Mike, it IS an accomplishment.
now you can dress your plugs with eelskins, I give you permission, but stay away from live ones.  |
