I have a bunch of your plugs SFrances, and they do swim nice! Ive caught a few fish up to 20lbs on em. :cool:
Its great to see some new quality plugs coming out, best of luck to ya :)
Id like to order some of those larger surfster versions you got there, are they 2.5oz?
Krispy

tlapinski 12-02-2003 04:24 PM

i bought a few of those in Ct this year. they are good plugs, but you might want to talk to JohnR about becoming a sponsor here before people get the wrong impression of you. you don't want to be considdered in the same group as the Penetrator lures. :smash:

Krispy 12-02-2003 05:01 PM

I dont think he's advertising here, he hasnt even said the name

Christian 12-02-2003 05:05 PM

i know two things,i know he aint advertizing, and that wonderbread has to come with me.:)

Slipknot 12-02-2003 05:17 PM

Nice looking plugs.

I don't think anyone is starting any trouble, relax and welcome to the site.

Slipknot 12-02-2003 05:19 PM

Oh, one more question:) Your thread title is New to lure making, I guess you mean you are new to this lure making forum because I can tell you sure are not new to making lures :D Right?

TheRattBoy 12-02-2003 07:27 PM

WOW, I can't believe all the trouble this guy is starting,okay, to make everything better, send the wonderbread to Christian and i'll take the schoolbus;) :D seriously,those are sweeeet plugs.johnny "the Ratt Boy"

BigFish 12-02-2003 10:12 PM

Gotta have sfrances for the next "Plug Night" at MSBA!!!!:drool: :drool: :kewl:

Arby 12-02-2003 10:44 PM

:happy: YOU'RE NOT COUNTERFITTING??? :happy:

The Purple and the Schoolbus look EXACTLY like my "Big Don's". Don't ya' think? :af: I know Don. Do you plan on giving him a cut on your knockoffs when you sell them at your friend's tackle shop? :rolleyes:

The 3rd and 4th down on the left side look like bad "Lefty" imitations. Or maybe "BassWoods"... Close?

How much are you going to sell them for and where is your friend's shop? :smash:

Christian 12-02-2003 11:00 PM

jeeze take it easy on the poor guy.

Arby 12-02-2003 11:20 PM

Sorry, Christian...

in his first post he said, " I AM NOT TRYING TO CREATE A PROBLEM TO BE CONSTRUED WITH COUNTERFITTING!!!!!! I have the origionals and love the way they swim and catch fish!!!!!"

By his second post he said, "Thank you for the kind words these are for sale I am ramping up my production soon probably after the holidays. They can be purchased at my friends store here in pa."

Imitation is the best form of Flattery... but, Come On... :rolleyes: Making a copy of someone's plug is cool. Selling multiple copies is not. It's like mass producing EXACT copies of the entire Habs line then selling them as his own.

Different lips = different action
different body shapes = different action

But the "Surfster style" lip and original body shape are the key differences.
Creek Chub also used the Surfster lips on several different Pikie bodies, a Husky Musky body and had a jointed Pikie version

Stephen, you make a nice looking "Surfster style" plug.
Keep up the good work :btu:

Arby 12-02-2003 11:36 PM

sfrances, I'm not trying to embarrass you. If Don is aware of the similarities between your plugs and his then there is no problem. You have to admit a lot of your plugs looked an awful lot like my Big Don's.

Arby 12-02-2003 11:45 PM

My Big Don is also the surfster. not the fatboy.

bud8fan 12-02-2003 11:55 PM

Chill out guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Everyone makes plugs that might look a bit like another!!

After all you all had to start somewhere!!!


No need for starting an uproar!!!
