GOOD LUCK GOOD PLUGGIN:wavey:
P.S. see you at PLUGFEST

Oh Yeah! That felt GOOD.

Nice bottles.

Thanks guys, I'm realy looking forward to plugfest, just the BSing alone would be great, but to see the awesome creations you guys make is the highlight of the winter. I tested all the above in the rapids under the mill st. bridge on the Ipswich river, seeing as that was the only water available, I had a devil of a time gettig them back over the rocks,just holding them in the current, the bottles were thumping the rod pretty good... at least the dannys were easy to get back, even in the screaming currant.. no roll out... I've got a bunch more assorted plugs primed, I just cant bring myself to paint them...I wont reveal those until the 'fest!

oh ok
 

then thanks for holding out on us....heh heh heh :uhuh:

Nice looking plugfesters. Are you looking to trade?

Last year, I traded about 2 dozen plugs.....so I figure on about the same this year, funny thing, I went home with about ten or twelve plugs less than I arrived with.... some I just plain gave away...

Thanks but, there are guys on this forum that have fogotten more about plugs and plug building than I will ever know, I built my first plugs out of nessesity, they built from love and admiration of the plugs and the pioneer men that built before them... The paint doesnt mean much, I've caught fish on the sealed wooden test models... that told me all I needed to know.

Yeah I understand that. I got a bag full of beat up plugs and I always go back to the trusted old Darter with the paint almost gone from the hooks and rocks. I am new at the building of plugs. Started this year and have learned allot and also have a alot to learn from the older guys. I haven't graduated from needles yet. But having fun along the way.
Al,

Cuthogue... you have allready learned one very important lesson.... master one plug , get comfortable with it, then you can move on the the next one...The learning process is slow and continual... you never stop learning..:eyes:
