When a clown moves into a palace, he doesn't become a king. The palace becomes a circus.

Nice work. I remember one of my fishing buddies used to wear a shirt that applies. Had a bass on it, below the bass was the caption...
"I'd hit that."
:D
You can tell a lot about the character of a man...
by the way he treats those who can do nothing for him.

I don't look back at the things I can no longer do, I just look forward to the things I still can.

How do they work? As good, better, or ............?

I ash because I have made my own spinning lures for use in the ponds and lakes in the Adirondacks as they have many snag hazards. My own results are mixed at best. I'm still trying to find the "magic" ingredient.

Nice looking work.

I think they work just as good as store bought. Probably no better.

All made from poplar wood. I get the wood at Homedepot. Cut a profile out on a bandsaw then hand sand .
