Turning a preist - whatline - 07-26-2016

Saw a blurb in an old issue of trout unlimited talking about a preist. Had to look it up. Apparently fly fisherman use a priest not a club like everyone else.
Turned 1 from cucumber wood. Took about an hour to drill and turn. Plan on filling with lead and gluing plug in by weekend.
Fun little project. The wood was pretty sweet to work with. Had zero clue before the upgrade so don't think they'll be any pics.

Thou Shall Not Kill Trout
Thou Shall Not Hurt Trout
Thou Shall Not Eat Trout
Thou Shall Treat Every Trout Like a God Not your Wife

Called a Priest because it administers last rites.... You do want it to float! Thou shalt treat trout with butter and lemon....

I make mine from African blackwood. 20% denser than water but the user can put a small float on the handle thong .

Agreed, just as long as you don't cook the trout like an offering to a god.
