Jimmy Buffet just performed here in Waikiki, and as I have made hooks and fish carvings for him before, I got inspired and created my parrothead circle hook. I liked it so much I had it copyrighted, and I am now waiting to hear if I can get my reproductions of these sold in all the Margaritaville shops. Its not really a Tiki, but thought the Tiki folks might like to see it. I have done a few more on commission, in bone $ 100.00, and also have some repros , the double pic, available at a lower price ( $ 50.00) see http://www.louiethefish.com. |

Nice work. Regardless of what stores they are for it is always nice to make a profit out of something you are passionate about-especially if its something that you create by hand. I hope they pick them up for sale and look forward to seeing any new hook carvings you may come up with. |

OK, In all fairness, it is nice work. As to being fans of Jimmy B, except for Wildsville Man, you won't find many here I'm afraid my friend! |

Know your audience. You may want to try marketing these to Enchanted Tiki Room fans. |

I think I want one to wear to Tiki gatherings just so I can bask in the glow of flaring eyes. (It is a clever design and I don't particularly like hooks or parrots...Yet I like hookers dressed as pirates. Funny, huh?) |

Glad I am not the only Buffett fan here. He's not tiki, in my opinion, but I love him! Carefree, fun, beachy...not tiki, but complimentary to tiki, at least for me. Plus, he's a Mobile boy, too! |
