OK guys....first of all thanks for all the tips. I'm really enjoying making these lures. Haven't fished them yet, but thought I'd post a pic of my first completed plugs. I think they camoe out pretty good, but still a lot of fine tuning to do.
Also, attached is a picture of the drying cabinet I made from an old overjohn cabinet that I had sitting in the garage and the rotisserie accessory from a BBQ grill that I picked up for $20.
Can't wait to give these to a couple of my fishing buddies...hope they like'em...hopefully the stripers will like'em too.
Let me know what you think.
