Peterjay 0 Report post Posted July 18, 2014 I really like that one Kirk - reminds me somewhat of the old Helin Flatfish plugs. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kirk Dietrich 0 Report post Posted July 18, 2014 Yeah PJ, Bill Shank did a pretty good job on that one. I especially like the way he used the silicone skirt material by just gluing it on the back; not sure how good that will hold but I'm sure it looks good in the water. I asked him about the little barrel swivel in between and he said it works better in allowing the tail to wobble compared to using just a split ring to connect the two hooks...

Steve Hmmmmmmm.............I've gotta say, she'd probably get a lot more dates if she got rid of that beard and mustache. Then again, considering what passes for normal around here, a bearded woman wouldn't so much as raise an eyebrow. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Peterjay 0 Report post Posted July 19, 2014 Hell, a beard would have improved my ex-wife's appearance. As it was, she had to tease her hair up to cover her horns. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ditz2 0 Report post Posted July 19, 2014 Aw come on Peterjay......I still got some of the old flat fish in my tackle box. I also have a few of the old fly rod versions. The smallest one has a single hook. the next size has a small treble. then the next size up has a spreader with small trebles on each end of the spreader. These baits aren't old....just well used.

Peterjay 0 Report post Posted July 19, 2014 Those babies did have some wicked action. I might have one or two kicking round here myself. In fact, a gold flatfish was one of the first plugs I ever stole. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
