This really is lovely! Is it functional as well as unique? Are you a fisherman?
nice. catch anything with it yet? looks pretty decent for perch and panfish.you should have adds on late night shopping channels or a pro fisherman sponsor or something. maybe you could sponsor a bingorage fishing tournament with art for prizes...
JLB: Yes I fish; but I wouldn't put one of these in the water and wouldn't advise anyone else to (unless I sell these to those folks who wipe with silk TP). I'm sure I could catch pike with it, but they'll hit anything.
Will: I like the Bingorage fishing tourney idea, but if I'm going to mass produce these for the infomercial market, I'll have to outsource the work to C***a.

I thought they were a bit fancy for actual fishing :) I know very little about fishing - I've only been fishing once, and I actually caught something my first time! It made us quite a nice supper.
What's the cork-looking stuff around the hook that you're beading around? Is it leather, or something else?
JLB: Yes, leather. Elk scraps from the Rainy River Elk Company from near Emo , Ontario
fuck china! outsource to the south! you know..the mn iron range. those fuckers need the work and now that all their unions are busted they'll work for $$$ from canadia (queens picture and all)!!
Ah, c'mon Will. The only country that screws Canada worse than C***a is the USA, why would I send them work?
hey, how about a beaded landing net? even better, a beaded gill net! beaded fishing rod grip? the list of appropriate applications is endless!
