PlugFest Chatter - Try #2 ???

[hardcore from shore]

My dad and I are both looking forward to being there. I put some feathers and bucktail on a few hooks and he says he has a few more lures ready, though the basement is a little chilly for clear coat. Playing with flaptail connection options (to spin and not to spin). Really looking forward to chatting with folks and seeing their work as the pictures all look great. 4 weeks to my first Plugfest and 8 weeks to my 17th annual 4 Brothers in Law March Madness fishing trip to the Keys. Only thing that keeps dealing with this cold weather bearable.

Also go to MSBA.net and check out the new January 2011 Spray on line and see the article and pictures I sent in about my dad, the 90 year old plugbuilder. I have a shout out to Big Fish and the Plug bulding thread here on Striped-Bass.com. in the article as we learned a lot from both.

Long days at work, snow and freezing temperatures have been wearing me down.. I've been way too tired to hit the shop..... but I think I have enough plugs in reserve to have a few for trade, I might get some paint on an asortment of Jointeds i've had sitting in primer for a month.... I'll bring the displays with the wiring methods and some Jigs/fixtures like I had last year....
I know someone asked about darters/how to..

IF.. it ever stops snowing and I can find the time, I'll make a progressive set showing each step ...I aint gaurentteing that one.. if I get to it..it will be a bonus...

Nancy will be there as well to help out where ever she is needed... she's very excited about the event and has been talking about it since last year!
