Awesome Andrew. Can't wait to get them. I have been cutting my own for a few years from coyote spoons. With the original AP I didn't have to anymore and now I may have a Sooke herring spoon to go with the needlefish.
Standing Ovation Sir.
As far as the welded rings go. They are no guarantee either gentlemen(ladies). I have complemented my AP collections with NOGs Needle for the last two years. Both are great producers but I had more trouble with the large welded rings of the NOGs spoon (three broken in total) than the spilt rings of AP.

Here is a pic of one that I got back from Roy for a refurbish. The amount of tooth marks is pretty wild. Hopefully you can see in the pic. Aside from a bit at the tail, the tape is holding fine.
After applying I hit them with a heat gun and that really bonds the tape. It is not 100% necessary but does help.

I've got one Andrew P that has probably been in 10 good size springs mouths.
Still fine no issues. Holding up well.
On the other hand i've hit maybe 4 springs with the painted rhys davis/now gibbs heads, just about done, very little paint left.
Couple of tooth marks and the paint peels off.

I snagged my sandlance on the bottom on the Flats on Monday! The leader snapped after we spend 15 minutes trying to retrieve it. RIP Sandlance, I hope your replacement will perform just as well as you did

Picked up one yesterday at Sitka. Sounded like they came in that morning.

The captain is right. There are some fresh ones available at Sitka right now. I'll be doing weekly deliveries from now on to try and keep them stocked up. Feel free to email for special requests.

Andrew, friend wants to order some Sandlace spoons but the Sitka web site is not showing your stuff. Should he email you at aptackleworks to order? Or is there a new web site where he can see the different patterns?
