Thanks guys, hey bigk, yup it has some paint on the end of the tail, you guys got any thoughts on the age of it? Most of the eelsskin plugs we fished growing up we carved the Notch in ourselves, only seen a few that came that way from the factory,

I did chime in but for some reason it's not there anymore. Dunno maybe I never hit submit.

Looks like a Capt Andy to me but I didn't see it on any capt andy collector pages.
