View Full Version : How many different plug builders do you have plugs from?
Slipknot 01-28-2007, 09:35 PM I have a huge amount of plugs built by other plug builders from the sites it isn't funny :eek: not commercial plugs, custom I mean.
How many do you guys have?
I'll tell in a little bit.
But one builder I do not have any, not one plug of , kinda surprises me :(
smitty919 01-28-2007, 09:43 PM all ya have to do is ask me and i will give ya one lol
BigFish 01-28-2007, 10:03 PM I must have plugs from about 25-30 different guys!:kewl:
Raven 01-28-2007, 10:08 PM i have only just begun.....:bshake:

aquisition year for plug purchases....

BigFish 01-28-2007, 10:13 PM Maybe more now that I think about it? I will count tomorrow!

Can I have a plug? :D
I don't have the cool avatar to say it but THIS THREAD IS WORTHLESS WITHOUT PICTURES Let's see some pluggage.
Slipknot 01-28-2007, 10:27 PM :D:laugha: :pop:
Awsome:claps: :claps: :claps: :claps: :claps: :claps:
You guys have all seen my wood. :jump1: No real custom stuff but some nice stuff from commercial builders on this site and a few much appreciated freebies too:btu:
mikecc 01-28-2007, 10:56 PM 100+
Slip I have a few for ya. :btu:
I have slowly been getting them to all the guys that placed one on the wall.
Slipknot 01-28-2007, 10:57 PM That's not even all of them Luds. I forgot my Cranium howdy in my plugbag. I have 75 builders plugs, no duplicates there although there are many builders that I have multiple plugs of. I have been doing this a long long time and did swaps back in the beginning. Some of these plugs are by first timers, some are masterpieces. Thanks to all who have swapped with me:btu: that's a lot of plugs. I am sure I've lost a few others fishing them that would add to the total. I am doing the MOASS swap so that should add another 10 or so. My goal is 100.

thank you
The Dad Fisherman 01-29-2007, 09:32 AM I'm not sure 25-30 different......but I'll be picking up 29 more in March....woohoo
I'll see If I can get a Pic for this too.
Rockfish9 01-29-2007, 10:17 AM None.....Fairly new to the net, never been envolved with swaps, kinda just kept a low profile making what i needed for me, my son and a few friends....
Karl F 01-29-2007, 10:44 AM But one builder I do not have any, not one plug of , kinda surprises me :(
hmmm... no bassmaster's?... sounds like a road trip.. pick me up, we'll go raid the cave.
I have no plugs :(..
;)
prolly have plugs from 50-60 different custom builders..
and a few (;) shhhh JPI, U saw nothing in the back of my truck, remember?) from commercial ones.. but never enough :bl: :spin:
numbskull 01-29-2007, 11:49 AM Ain't got many, but what I got I've fished.......except Flap's cause he put weakass hooks on it to sabotage me.....the baztard. Top to bottom, Backbeach Jake, Tagger, Flap, Mac, and Slip. Seems wrong just to hang 'em (but throwing Mac's weasel is gonna be tough next year). Thanks guys.

well we'll help you take care of that situation at the plugfest I'm sure. I'll trade with you. :uhuh:
Canalman 01-29-2007, 01:34 PM I have at least 40 probably more... :uhoh:
Rockfish9 01-29-2007, 02:43 PM well we'll help you take care of that situation at the plugfest I'm sure. I'll trade with you. :uhuh:
It will be a pleasure... I'll bring a bunch...:wiggle:
Tagger 01-29-2007, 04:20 PM You made me count .. I have presently have 181 custom plugs from builders other than me ,, you'll never see on ebay . I treasure them .. some just hang .. some I occaisionly pluck and take out with me .. A custom plug is a piece of a mans soul ..super mojo ...
ProfessorM 01-29-2007, 04:30 PM I only have one Tagger plug:hs: but it is pretty

None for me yet but I'm getting pumped about March MOASS myself!!:D
nightfighter 01-29-2007, 06:46 PM Surprisingly less than I would have thought, about eighteen different builders...
Obvious voids in the display I would like to fill include Manzi, Tagger, Slip, Flap, Numbskull, Eastendlou, Freak, and PNG (fricken' #^&#^&#^&#^& ho'd a beautiful Roman nike Chris gave me last MSBA show.... saw it and then had to watch him lose it...) I would say that a third have come via S-B fundraisers, a third bought, and the rest came through generousity of friends met though this site. Over three years, I have only finished maybe a dozen plugs, so haven't had the goods to swap with. They suck, so half have gone to locals who think their good.:laugha: The rest I just keep moving the weight around to see if they'll ever swim right. :huh: Easier to try and ho...
As I stated in another thread, I get more enjoyment seeing them hung on the exposed beams in this room, so if I only have one from a builder, it likely is going to live on display. More than one, then I'm gonna fish the others hard.
Tagger 01-29-2007, 06:55 PM I'm proud owner of 5 "Newell Guy" plugs ... I'm talking pre-lathe jacknife stuff ... and first lathe pikie I rescued from his trash barrel .. We use to look at them and imagine the cows fighting for them .. VB forgetaboutit ...
Karl F 01-29-2007, 06:58 PM I have a Newell Guy needle.. might be a first born needle :huh:.. :)
Tagger 01-29-2007, 07:07 PM I have a Newell Guy needle.. might be a first born needle :huh:.. :)
me too ... massive amounts of epoxy puked on belly grommet... nose loop like a rectangle.. I bet it catches fish though..

Raven,
I still owe you a plug I promised you for offering some help on my shed project. I didn't forget, I'm just stuck in slow motion...
Raven 01-29-2007, 07:23 PM the true blue.... people .... will come thru....
of that, i have no doubts. carry on...
and thanks for remembering. :btu:
Jigman 01-29-2007, 08:15 PM 50, give or take. Though some of those are from guys on other sites who do not post here.

Ya, you had 1 or 2, but bein your an Al Gore disciple, ya keep e'm in a "locked box" :hihi:

l.i.fish.in.vt 01-31-2007, 08:00 AM without counting them,around 100 /120.truly amazing looking back at the plugs from the first swaps to those of today.
:D:laugha: :pop:
There's plugs missin from that pic...:D
I did not see Mike Tattoo's cutty thing..
I Have Bunch..
Numbskull i owe u a plug..
Sorry it's a long line..
So long that when folks offer em to me I say no thanks..
I just don't feel right takin when I am so slow to reciprocate.
Plus I hate givin my babies up..
The good thing is I haven't cheated any of em out of anything..
YET..:D
I owe plugs to BB Jake,Canalman,
Thumburner took another so that relinquishes my debt.
Vic, L.I.F.VT.,Diggin Jiggin..
There's a bunch more.
I'm givin myself a headache thinkin about it...I will start messin wit em tonite to see if i can put a bunch together for the plug get together.If I can i will come.what do i have 10/11 days..
Perfect..
If u wanna trade don't come up the NIB with no crap..
:D
Slipknot 01-31-2007, 08:42 AM I think maybe some of you guys don't understand what I said. I was talking about builders of the plugs, not plugs themselves. I must have over 200 custom plugs atleast. It's the total number of builders themselves that I have 75 of. Too long a list to write out like Flap did.
Nib, if I put all my customs on that table, they would be 3-4 deep :eek:
I have a tattoo darter up there from like 2000, precommercial days with doll eyes :D Got my first NIB swimmer there also. That pic has ONE example of each builder and they are not only from this site, but from SOL also and some from friends locally not on the net.
I can't count all the custom plugs, it would take too long, but I remember pretty much who's plugs I have, that is why I was amazed how many it came out to. I bet bassmaster has 150 or more different builders' plugs , and twice or three times that amonut of total other custom plugs.

And you did say custom not commercial right?
Woodbuster 01-31-2007, 01:18 PM Just a question:
I have never been to a plugfest before so what I would like to know is... Does everybody bring a fistful of their plugs to trade????
Raven 01-31-2007, 01:21 PM only if they want to.....there are many trade oportunities via the site or you can elect to do some privately too.
plugs are swapped sure...but thats not the main focus of the event

:laugha: :rotf3: :laughs: :rotfl: Now thats funny :tooth: No Chums in my collection. Do have a pogie bottle plug. Swims real nice. I put it away if bluefish are around.
Thats how I read it Slip. Plugs by around 50 different builders and I don't have enough fingers and toes to count all the plugs :hihi:

And I can't count mine either:hs: :hf1: :spin: :gu:
I still use my freshie swap plugs.
TDF is doing well for the time he has in:bl:
sportyguy, good luck with that:wiggle: , you'd have an easier time getting a bassmaster or maybe a nib :hidin:
I have a amazing amount of plugs..
For the number i have handed out.
like 5-1..
Thats probably a conservative estimate..
