    What about when you're reading a magazine and you spread your fingers on the images to zoom in.. lol. I've done that. It made me feel like I spend too much time on my phone.

    Here is "lurch the perch" he was fresh last night. He is the first non prototype lure that I created a birth certificate for. (One for each lure from here on out) It includes my company/signature, it's name, made up origin, birth date, #lure (lurch is #62) Sorry, no paper certificate in the canoe with us.

    Yes, that's how bright he glows in the dark, no lights. The less you work the green, the brighter it stays.

    This next shot is a CURRENT photo from 5 mins ago. Sorry the world is sideways on this phone. Click image for larger version.

    This is the current in use stash of glow glass poppers. Going clock wise, starting with lurch (6 o'clock position) , next to him tied to the line, is "Theo" the Brown trout. His little sister "Rudy" , is the next Brown trout. "Bubba" the bullfrog is the final Brown looking lure. All three Brown poppers, have glow tails that look similar to a fire fly glowing on the water.

    The next lure, with the big mouth, that's "Tina tops". Tina glows blue, with a green tail. Tina, used to have a bigger "T" shaped tail. With the original name "T-tops." The big tail got in the way of the hook. So he (t-tops) got reassignment surgery. (The same day Bruce became Christina, go figure.)

    In the lower right corner, that's "Moby the Dick" he was prototype. He has over a 1,000 casts, and many, many, fish cought. He fought a 38" chain pickerel this week, twas epic. He got his name, because he is close to perfect. All the lures I make are a attempt to re-create "the white whale." He is blue with a green tail.

    The final lure, next to Lurch, is "Ike the Pike" Ike was created the same day as Tina tops. Ike is green with a blue tail. Ike yells a lot, however he gets the job done.

    Every one has popped its cherry, catching fish. Rudy is the only virgin. Rudy floats funny in the pool. A quick flame mod. Add a little weight to her head. Rudy too will get a ticket to the big show.

    And he says...
    When I grow up I want to be,
    One of the harvesters of the sea.
    I think before my days are done,
    I want to be a fisherman.

    You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to BoRo again.

    Claypool might as well change it to Drew The Fisherman (and mad scientist glass blower!), you're killing it with those lures!

    There is an ecstasy that marks the summit of life, and beyond which life cannot rise. And such is the paradox of living, this ecstasy comes when one is most alive, and it comes as a complete forgetfulness that one is alive. This ecstasy, this forgetfulness of living, comes to the artist, caught up and out of himself in a sheet of flame ; it comes to the soldier, war mad on a stricken battlefield and refusing quarter. ~ Jack London

    Thanks ned I'm pretty sure this piece weighs more than the other one did and it has more work for sure. Now you have to come do one with us. We got PAID last time the 3 of us made something. Although I'm sure Brett and I will wanna just make cups since your owning the cup game right now.

    And thanks Steve a lil stringer wrap goes a long way with the illuminati
