G'morning, George. Get your snow shoveled yet? |

Here's what I've started.
A smaller version (to fit a lefty1 lip) of the low floating, slow wagging, unstable, skinny donny (white pictured) that have done so well for me.
A fatter, higher riding, tail weighted, full size version of the same plug (green cloud)......that I gave to early bird, and swam fantastic, but he under-appreciated so I took it back.
Some Musso/BM wad clones to try.

And these are some variations on a big 3 oz needle of my own I've been fishing the last several years and liking.
Also a picture of my secret plug building weapon

You've been very busy. So far I have 3 protos spun.
One being that Norris needle, using my patented WAG method from the pic.
I marked some squares to turn some pikies later today.

Do I see correctly, do you use an actual plug for a pattern with that duplicator?

Yeah, that is a first. I usually use a plexiglass template in a holder that goes in the same spot. Making the templates accurately has proven difficult (without slicing the original plug in half). I tied the copier trick but it didn't work for me, and tracing the original is always off by the thickness/angle of the pencil. Then cutting and smoothing the plexiglass leads to inaccuracies. |

I've been thinking pikies as well. Seems like the GRS slim has been a good plug for some people (I've never seen one), and I'm intrigued by the shape Rock posted of one of his early plugs. Then again, these musso pines I've built swim subsurface well so I'm not sure what I will gain by moving to a pikie shape (other than a prettier plug).
