"you wont be paying $2.50, or $2.25, not $2.00, not $1.75, not even $1.50 as you all may be thinking, your price is just 3 easy payments of .39 cents, thats right ill say it again, 3 easy payments of .39 cents"
"thats right Ron, but hold on theres more, if you act now, ill include the ginsu knife set to keep as your gift ,even if you return the lips, so act now, supplies are limited"

I've never sold a plug.still hav'nt made nice enough ones.I agree with Sammy.not everyones can twist thier own,so getttin some doe for some extra's is cool.helps by more wood lips wire eyes maybe a new machine or tool.No harm indat.

bassmaster 01-22-2004 11:04 AM

yeah i sell a few here and there every one know that

Krispy 01-22-2004 11:16 AM

Just curious, where did everyone get $20 from? :huh: I notice all custom builders are selling their stuff for $20

justplugit 01-22-2004 12:47 PM

Probably coming close to breaking even at that price!Cost of quality materials,time and labor these guys put in, make that price a real bargain!

Diamond Tackle 01-22-2004 03:12 PM

The price is set by O.P.E.C. (Organization of Plugbuilders Enterprise Coop) They meet once a year and in their infinite greed will set whatever price they feel the market will bear. We are at their mercy.

Actually I think when you consider the amount of work involved in a custom plug compared to production plugs that are approaching $16.99 retail, you are truly getting your moneys worth and then some. They should be more like $25- $30.00 each.
Plastic injection molded stuff which I know for a fact costs about .40 cents to produce overseas is the real question esp. when you shell out $14.99+ for one of them fancy yashizukimoto swimmers that don’t swim anywheres NEAR as well as wood. And wood smells great when properly trashed.

Tagger 01-22-2004 06:50 PM

is it sad ?

bassmaster 01-22-2004 08:21 PM

got news for You
Bombers smoke wood at night most the time for swimmers
The Yo Bubbas are a fill in plug

Nebe 01-22-2004 08:47 PM

Yo-yo-yo-zuri darter in sardine.........:humpty:

Krispy 01-22-2004 09:28 PM

because at night bass use their lateral line to pick up the vibe much more than the daytime, No? I got no problem with bombers, they catch, not nearly half as much fun as wood thou.

NIB 01-22-2004 09:48 PM

I love bombers.Dave show us a pic of the few that U got.I remember someone told me they where droppin black an purple a few yrs ago so I bought three cases.I have as many bombers in Unopened packages as I do opened.Had the best nights of my life on a Mag.U can keep the surfster lips just somethin else to scramble my brain.An It don.t take much.I'm sellin all my plugs an goin to eels.

RIROCKHOUND 01-23-2004 09:31 AM

I agree on the bomber v. You-Zur-Eye debate... I'm not sold on YoZuri's... had good nights with them, but had a testing point last year... gave my LAST 'bus bomber to my lil bro... he fishes once a year.... I threw Yo's, wood, plastic... I got burned bad that night.... he still talks smack..... in the right condiions Bombers are the nuts.... in big water or at a breach... give me wood or give me death (or smilin bills)

Krispy 01-23-2004 10:05 AM

I dont use bombers much anymore, to me they pale in comparison to the megabait swimmers. the 1 1/3oz and 1 3/4oz are my go to's for plastic. Dont use yozuri's, cant cast em. Except the surface cruiser :love:

RIROCKHOUND 01-23-2004 10:42 AM

Yeah I forgt the MB's I have a few, but feel they are the same at night, during first light They do "shine".....:love:
