Now about that banana plug.....

 

Those Danny's I make catch some large fish.

That olive danny was a beast of the race for a while,  Did real good on those.

  The best Danny to own is an all white danny if you was just to have one.

 

 Steve Sharika always talked about them and that snake on top of the water.

  Im thinking what the hell is he talking about.

 So Steve,  And I went on Stifftips boat tossing plugs on the beach and dragging them into the water off the islands. 

 Im like ok there de tuning the plugs so bad to stay on top,  there gibbs

  So i set out to make a plug stay up with the right amount of roll and wiggle.

 I used Bob Hans at the time, great plug when you picked through them.

 

 So I made my danny and tested it on fish and tweaking got me a nice swimmer.

  Then I made them with pike lip like Bob Hans.   So I have 2 styles that work awsome.

  I make them out of ayc. But I make them with red western cedar and that plug is amazing. 

 It raises the dead.  I have a certain way of making it.  

   Lot of testing, so after a few years I had the danny down, then came the red western cedar dannys..

 

 The black with gold around the eyes wss killer and i tuned the colors off fish and ended up with my gold hue on the sides with red eyes .

 I still use black with red eyes and do variants with different metal flake at times.

 The olive, the same way, been using purple around the eyes and mix my own olive, I have my own formula 

I do have a greener olive also

I do the gold hue with a green hue on a few.

 That combo is killer. And my sand eel is black olive  and hued.  Deadly.

Val and his bud one on one side one on the other.  Slaying bass,  I had to toss a plug get a fish swap plugs and repeat. 

 Finally im like wtf you guys using.

They had my stubby needlefish in that pattern,  Im trying to buy the plug off Val. Bribing nothing worked.

 Im marveling at the plug, it was like god made it, It sank so perfect and swam..   pretty bad.

 That is cool i made some haha.

 

 Mike Fixter is the most copied Master Lure Builder, all pikes that are made shold be credited to him.

Cause the closest i ever seen was creek chubs and the  Is giant muriat 

You know them big sob that use to hang in nelsons...

 So i got into the pike building.

Have a blue and silver wuth purple eyes i got a 30 lb or what ever off the knob.  It held 1st place all year the i got knocked off the leader and came back to win the plugithon with a olive and gold hue needle .

 I think I won that 3 or 4 times in a row, cant remember. 

 

 The black plug is a spin off from Tony stezko,s Dad, i have a bunch of his needle. And use to tell his dad i made plugs. I did in the early 90,s

Poppers that was it but man i saved money not paying 6 bucks for a gibbs

 Destroying bluefish on the beaches

And had some 3.5 oz suckers for the canal.

 I still have the 1st plug i made

I loved red head yellow plugs.

I do solid yeller dannys with a red chin.

 I loved talking to Tonys Dad and use to buy his plugs all the time. 10 whole  dollars almost an hours pay or half a tank of gas.....

Thanks for posting this post 

And Darters are a pain in the arse....

I don't have any- wish I did- except maybe this one.  I got it in a lot.  I think it says Bush- master lures on it.  Not easy to read.  Not a needlefish.  Also says something like Dave likes bush I think. 

Anyone know what this is?

Flaptail, Steve Sharika, picked most of those out for me that day. I tried to get a few of those Fixters but you wouldn’t part with them. Funny thing I sent Mike a motor assembly for his lathe which I had hanging around and he sent a bunch of plugs as I didn’t want any money for the lathe parts. So I got my Fixters. 

what's the secret word for tonight
