Another big Thank you to JohnR and Bruce. Appreciate you putting this event together. I always look forward to it and never come home dissapointed. Truly enjoy catching with old friends and making new ones.

Also wanted to thank everyone who spent some time talking with my friend John. He was good freinds with Flaptail and has always had an interest in building plugs. Pretty sure his head is still spinning today. If he doesn't buy a lathe today I bet he buys one tomorrow :uhuh:.

Great time but it sucked that I had to sit next to Paul.

Wish I'd had more plugs to hand out.

Wish I'd met Frank P, and, Makai, did I meet you? If I did I didn't realize it, sorry.

Yeah sitting next to Paul sucks! All his plugs start talking to me....taunting me about how beautiful they are!!!:rotf2: Plus Paul had a huge "Throng" of admirers in front of his table all day long fighting it out for room to drool with all the folks George had in front of his table....I thought there was gonna be a brawl!!!:rotf2:

ProfessorM 02-20-2011 06:58 PM

yoooze guys a way to nice, well not George, but he at least doesn't speak with forked tongue. Dr. truth. It was funny listening to him badger Sauerkraut all day long.

Larry I wish my stuff was as nice, clean as yours.

BigFish 02-20-2011 07:04 PM

Paul please.....lets just agree to envy each other then ok? Loved seeing Sauerkraut yesterday!!! Alan is just a great guy!:uhuh:

Hey guys thanks much . Was a great day. Got to talk with some great people and Pam and I had a fantastic time. Was well worth the ride down from Maine. Thanks again and can't wait to try some of these killer plugs I traded for. Ron and Pam

Just wanted to thank John and Bruce. Had a great time again. Every year I realize how much i still have to learn. Its great to be a part of it! Also want to thank all the guys who were willing to trade. Hope the plugs i traded catch you a fish! Happy trails.

FrankR 02-21-2011 09:21 AM

This was my first time ,hopefully not the last. Got to see some old friends and meet some new friends. Gained some new knowledge and passed some on. Enjoyed talking to rockfish, vineyard and old man, lots of info from them. Even got to do some trades and get some great stuff. A big thanks to John and Bruce for a great event.

Huge thanks to Slipknot, Danny (for working the door), JohnR and everyone else who helped put on the event! It was my first Plugfest and I had a great time, despite getting there late due to a sick child and wife at home. I could have spent the entire time at Professor M and Numbskull's table admiring the unbelievable craftsmanship on the plugs and bags there. I'm glad I didn't spend the whole time there, though. There was so much quality in terms of plugs, flies, etc... in that room that my head was spinning. It was great seeing people who I haven't seen in a while and also meeting some new people who I will hopefully get a chance to fish with this year. I'm so glad I was able to make it, even if it was for a short time.

Special thanks to OD Mike for hooking me up with some awesome plugs to trade. I scored some real nice stuff on Saturday, not to mention winning a real cool SB.com spook made by Slipknot in the raffle.

OLD GOAT 02-21-2011 11:42 AM

Just wanted to say that I had a great time and already forgot half the names. Thank You everyone.
PS If I do a good job cutting Capesams grass he might bring me next year. Hope so.
