Lightning has struck twice at the Back Beach residence....my linkage broke again last night creating a 3 for 5 outing once again.

In baseball this would be a great night at the plate, but this is plugbuilding and constitutes another strikeout....

In honor of my half dozen or so epoxy mishaps, I'm introducing a new line of fishing plugs which will be called the "Warthog" series.....pics to follow.

It's not the bait
At the end of your line
It's the fishing hole
Where all the fish is blind

Back beach, if you are having trouble spinning the plugs maybe try with the flipping method.

Forget the epoxy unless you are selling your plugs and need to attract fishermen. 2 coats of clear coat work fine and the plugs hold up just as well. Ask Scottie. he just clear coats and he does 30K plugs a year.

No boat, back in the suds.

Yep, the epoxy is just one more thing to piss off and confuse the masses, no doubt... and I'm one of them.
