Very nice, and fun, huh? I have made mine with a rasp, but now I am working on at least finish sanding them with the drill lathe from this forum.
Pretty wild, Gary. Bet the fishies will like it too !!
Did you build / turn the grip on the blank ??

The fish are always right.
yes i did but i am in the middle of building a mandrel and will do them from now on with that.
Hey, nice job. What did you seal it with? Pretty fun making your own stuff, isn't it?
