Just messin' around

A few new ones just for fun. I really enjoy making the Nikes and I love the way swim (at least the way last year's batch swam)

Pinky

Another new plug. Test swam this the other day. She dove down a bit and had a great wiggle. Can't wait to try it for real and to catch my first fish on a home made plug.

Newbie poppers and copies

Thanks all. The shrooms are one piece with a natural edge left on the cap. I haven't figured out how to weight and hook them so they don't roll, but someone on this site will probably have some...
