The bobber project.







One in the works.


It’s getting there.

If you lend someone $20 and never see that person again, it was probably worth it.

Wish I could show them in 360 degree view.

Just beautiful, love the colors. I recognize some of the feathers, does Dom get partial credit?

Also thinking when not in fishing use they would look cool hanging from a Christmas tree.

Those are beautiful RG, I've never seen anything like them.  I think you may have made a new art form.  They should go on display somewhere, I would be afraid to use them.

Dom gets a bobber for his many donations. This style of bobber is fairly common in Europe. I’m just learning something new. I’d love to come up with a way to inlay one of the peacock feather eyes he sent me.

Been watching a lot of videos on making traditional reed floats. Cut some materials this morning to take a shot at that too. I’ve got quite a few bobbers in the works at various stages. I’m beginning to realize this is becoming yet another hobby addiction.

These are for you Dom.

From birds you know all too well.

However....you can’t have them unless you promise  to use them.

Does it tell where those feathers ended up?
