i am working on getting my work shop all set up to begin trying
my hand at turning some plugs, is there any MUST HAVE books
about plug building out there. I am an avid fly tyer and i know
there are books out there that every saltwater tyer should have.
just wondering if there are any about plugs to get me headed
down the right path.

Honestly, This website is the only thing you need. I have learned a ton in just the past few months from this site. Just take a look around on all the postings and you'll find everything you need. If all alse fails, just ask. You'll get an answer from someone. I don't really know of any books the go over plug building to the scope of what the guys here do. There is a book called Basic Tackle Building that is pretty generic. Good luck.
