here are a few more pictures of the plugs and a few of the builders...

some more pics...

that darter is about 11 inches! Made by Glen (Goo Goo Man)

The pegboard displays are all by Rockfish 9 (Joe) Incredible work as always

Yes mom but I was thinking about the guy that is senior and more honorable should be on the right. Since I screwed it up in the photo at least I could put it in the name ;)

Ouch. That would have been bad.

some more shots..

First pic is Numbskull's table

Love the Fire tiger Paint on the Goo Goo popper

Plugs on black background are Eskimo's plugs... correction... these are Gremlins plugs

handpainted Mack Pikie is a collaboration plug with JMAC and Goo Goo Man

Middle picture is Professor M's table

These are some of JMACs hand carved plugs...

Great time! Thanks to those who put this event together. Also thanks to those that traded and shared there knowledge with me, learned alot.
On another note anyone know who made this darter, I won it in the raffle?

BT, the plugs on the black background in the pic you posted are actually Gremlin's (Jamie) plugs.

I had a good time myself, made some trades, got handed some unbelievable plugs, had a few laughs, and won a tee shirt! Thanks John R and Slip. Glad you guys liked the signs.

JMAC, thanks again for the plug, you too Ross.

Yes - they were great :btu: Huge thanks!


I was going to save them but one got damaged shipping and the dog ate the other (well bit off part)

Glad I could help John. What you guys do is a great thing that makes for loads of good friends.There are some unbeleivably talented guys at plugfest. You never leave without learning something new and with some great toys to add water to. Thank.

:rotf2::biglaugh:
I new I should have taken them home for next year , oh well :D

Yes - that was huge! Major thanks :btu:

Had a blast, conversation I had with George about fishing darters was probably the best conversation I've had about fishing in the last 5 years.. this guy knows his stuff!

Am I the only one who sees the resemblance between these two photos?

Always a great time. Always leave wondering 'why didn't I think of that'
Love seeing what produces for other people.

That's a fast way to meet your maker, siting on the roof of a house full of gas.
Wished we went to the fest together. It would have been cheaper than Sweetie and I, since she went shopping as I fest ed away the day

She saw her chance and ran with it....hope she got you alittle something other then the bill :hihi:

looks like a blast guys! I was laid up with a super gross cold and I didnt feel like sharing it with everyone in the room. thanks for the pics looks like everyone was having a great day :)

thanks for the Pictures of the "EVENT"

great seeing everyone some great plugs

thank you for the kind words about my dad, Bill Prodouz Sr. he passed away Friday
 

I cut and pasted your note to an email and my mom, sister and nieces read it to him on Thursday and he was very pleased. The fact that his plug is part of the plug project meant a lot to him and my family. He was a proud member of Striped-bass.com. He loved building plugs, learning from everyone and seeing everybody's great work.

There will be a short service at Waitt Funeral home on Wednesday 3/25 at 11 am and inurnment at Bourne National Cemetary later that day. So as Bill always said, I can visit him when I fish the cape.
You guys all made him feel young and able to learn more.
Thanks,
Bill

Hey Bill,

Great picture of your dad from last year. Very sorry, I know the feeling:

Your father would have passed on proud of you.......and there is no greater gift you could have given him. I'm sorry for your loss.

Thank you all for your kind words about my dad. Plug building, even though he started at age 78 gave him 14 years of pleasure and the ability to incorporate new ideas. You all inspired him. Usually a week or 2 after plugfest he would show me new shapes or paint jobs or special effects.
My mom and family found great comfort in your thoughts and kind words. May your plugs find many fish this year and in the years to come.
Bill
