WTF!!!!!
What an A-hole


CORRECTION! , bag was misplaced

Let's make a bag up for him. I'm in for a couple. Someone PM me with a way to get a couple plugs to him.



Bag was located

Me too....

George, I have a lot of your beautiful lures. I received much more yesterday and I'm very grateful. It's not all about fish and plugs for me these days, you know? I treasured the company, and am more than content, thankyou.:uhuh:

Got some nice ones.

Really nice but one has obviously been vandalized: someone painted on the letters g, i, a, n, t, s.:)

I'm in with two plugs for the boy... PM me the address to send it to. How could someone do that?

thanks Chris

Bag was located

Where did you hear this Larry? pm me please :fury::fury:
UNFREAKINBELIEVABLE!!!
you mean to tell me there was a lowlife theif among us yesterday? what do we have to hire security in the future? :wall::wall:


did this really happen?
because this really bums me out and puts a dark cloud over what was a great day :hs:





great gesture Ted and you other guys :btu:

I just wish we would not have to do this at all.
I would hope the thief turns the bag of plugs in when they realize they took the wrong bag of plugs:smash:

if anyone has any info or saw anything please PM me.

I'll be in for some replacements too if they are not returned.

I'm really pissed about this and feel really bad for the kid whoever he/she is :(

Bag was located, sorry for the over-reaction

Wow. You guys out do yourself every year. Wish I could have made it to see them all in person.

What are the details, or is this rumor?
Whose kid lost their bag?
If true, we can easily set this right.


all set, bag was located

I have not heard of any child losing a bag of plugs?? Just one of the builders had a favorite plug grow legs at shows end and he was looking for it. No biggie...we can make more but it sucks when someone helps themselves to something that does not belong to them! There is one in every crowd!


the plug in question was located, all is well

I got a ton of stuff, I wouldn't know where to began.

I tried spending more time looking at jigs, xrays, and everyone else's stuff besides hanging with my stuff. Just to much to take in such a short time. Nice to talk about plugs with others rather then being stuck in the garage talking to myself about plugs.

Not sure that its replaceable or if it was more then one plug but I can send a few to whoever if indeed it was a bag of plugs. I hope its confusing as it would be lame if someone lifted it.

yep, bag was located

I think the cctackle folks knew what happened to the little boys bag.They were saying it got shipped to RI by accident. It was G2h's son.

Frank , was that your mac pencil I got in the second pic in my first post here?

I think it must be

this is why guys should sign them, i'm guilty of not signing all my stuff also though

yup, that was mine. never remember to sign them and most stuff never leaves a small circle of friends so usually its no biggie. bad habit

not a bad habit
thanks
just my brain was toast after the day

i'll trade with you anytime

really?

then i hope mike can clear this up

how the heck does it get shipped to RI from plugfest by mistake?:confused:
oh well

maybe we over-reacted

but even if paul's plug is missing, i'm still bummed
he did not say anything to me

The missing plug bag belonged to the litle boy who was sitting on the floor with Felicia Thomas. From what I'm told the bag of plugs was under Mike's cash register in a box. Apparently someone had a large order and it was packaged in THAT box and taken away. Hopefully when the person who received the box will realize it and try to locae the rightful owner of the bag. I know if it were my son he would be devastated! Its awesome that everyone, including me is willing to make a collection for Jayden, but we shouldn't have to. Lets wait a few days and see if the bag turns up before we jump to conclusions and assume we have a thief. We are all in this together and it bothers me that we have to even think like this.

Spud

Here's my haul :grins:. I still owe Saltydog and BigD a plug, won't forget about you guys. My first plugfest was a blast, I learned a ton. It was great to meet everyone and see there plugs in person. Also great to meet JohnR and Slip.I still can't believe I won best rookie builder, there was some amazing talent.Thanks everyone

If the kids plugs don't show up, I'll send one along as well. It sucks to hear about something like that happening.

OK, everything is fine with the missing bag of plugs.
Hookedagain is right about the mixup.

I just heard from George - G2Hook
he said mike got in touch with the customer and it will be shipped out on monday

it was just a misunderstanding

he'll get the plugs back

all's well that ends well

now we can get back to the regularly scheduled thread :)

Thanks for the concern guys, but not needed. My sons bag was put in a USPS box of lips going to RI, probably by my son. Box was under the register, when it came time for the guy to leave, he just assumed it went with the box. Totally innocent. Mike called him when he got home, guy said he had already dropped the box off at the shop and would check today. This morning Mike told me, he had located the plugs, and that he would send them out on Monday. Sorry for all the fuss. Don't want to take away from another great plugfest.

Rockfish9s' darter demo was insane. Always leave learning something new.

sounds good George


ya rockfish9 is amazing, can you believe he whipped that darter display up in one day :eek: wow
very impressive stuff

i heard that, that's unreal.

Me, too. I think we should take a collection and all chip in to buy a Paul a cheeseburger. That ought to help make it right.

This is what I got, an again thanks to slip an john for putting on a great 2011 plug fest meet some NEW BUILDERS an even LEARNED a few things, still missed a few guys to swap with, an VERY SPECIAL THANK YOU to LARRY "BIG FISH" for the FANTASTIC paint job it will never see water.

They seem to be empty....could of sworn they were cold and full.:) enjoyed meeting you Saltydog.

Here is a pic of all the trade plugs (and tails!) I ended up with. Can't wait to fish them all. Had a great time, met some awesome builders and learned a ton at my first plug fest.

Also happy that people enjoyed the pasta salad, because there wasn't a scrap left when I brought the container home hehe.
