red cedar is one wood that is very difficult to produce a flawless finish on. I seriously doubt it would be the result of a lack of work ethic or no pride.
Maybe the grain showing will sometimes add to the realism of the plug looking like a fish.
Me personally, I would rather not see the grain showing thru, but that is just me. I build them to fish with and as long as they catch, then it's fine with me.
