    Nice work.

    Didn't know the extent of your injuries, Madcaster......
    I remembered you fell....a few members mentioned something as well.....

    Sorry to hear it was a fracture.
    Hope it heals relatively quickly....and my offer to help if you need anything still stands, just let me know......

    Do they float? Or sink slow?
    Also what do they weigh?
    They look great!

    They sink ...not sure how they sink ,they haven't been swim tested
    weight is from 1 3/4 to 2 1/4
    I build my needles the way I fish them .....across the top of the water and allways tailed weighted to make sure they cast well

    I tried to make floating needles ,but they allways sink on me or there so light I can't cast them
