So hurry up otherwise it will be real expensive if a bluefish steals it.
This sounds like my wife explaining why she had to buy something on sale, or me if it's important stuff for fishing.

I just bought a custom surf rod....because...as i told my wife...

it is on SALE ...and that next year the price will be going ^ UP ^

and even though it was definately not in the budget,
because of
that reason... it being ON SALE ...i have one now . :wavey:

Ditto, and worth every penny. (and you will spend more)
You've set the bar high, now you have to top yourself :D

Thanks for all the positive feedback from everyone , I owe everything I know about making plugs from this forum . :thanks:
Just for the record , the top half of the plug is redwood which came from an old redwood fence and the botton was a piece of scap maple . I glued the pieces together with titebond 3 waterproof glue . Before gluing the halfs together I ran a vee router tip groove down the center of each piece creating a perfect center wire channel . I finished with e-tex .
Any questions about the glue holding up , .......... I've had a plug glued up and submerged in water for about a month now and it's still holding strong.
Thanks again
