Selfish plug ID please….

[RiverCommando215]

Been trying to figure out who built this darter.  It’s been through the ringer but still kicking.  Thanks for the ID in advance.

LIFishVT maybe?

Thanks for the idea, but this looks pretty different compared to my LIFishVT.  I thought a Hahn style or something weird that I’m not privy to.
She’s light and weighted a tad different than my other wood darters.  Check this one out.   

Thanks again for the herring lot a while back.  Never forgot about ya, and loving the Tom Lohr.

As I was typing LIfishVT I was also thinking possibly Hahn

You would know. I’m stumbling through the plug world eyes wide shut.  I’m just lucky enough to find some dandy’s along the trail.  
I’m thinking sand the lip to accept a plate.  Make the first plug replicate the second.  Thanks again for your wisdom!

With the recessed grommet, I don’t think it’s a BH.

Your input is always respected.  In my humble opinion you are one of the best bro.  Can’t nobody do it like you!

It looks whacked hard into that soft pine, I don’t think intentionally recessed.

Thanks for all the help on the ID.  I only know SP minnow or cotton Cordell!  Hahaha.  I will refinish the plug and run it till she explodes.  Tight lines

John made darters that caught fish , not the prettiest paint or finish but fish catching plugs. A bit ruff and he used many different species of wood. That plug could be one of his. I'm looking for some to add to my collection of plugs made by guys who are no longer around. I liked John.
