I have to agree with Tagger. I love all my customs no matter who made them. Especially the ones that have teeth marks or that the paint has been stripped off by fish. My current favorite is a digger plug that was mauled one night by bass and blues. It's always one the first plugs I throw every time out, if not the first. It will be going back for a repaint over the winter.
The one thing I realized is that each plug has it's own set of conditions that it's tailored to. You just have test each plug and figure out how it works then fish it when the time and conditions are right. I also try to learn from ones received from other builders. I think I learned more about darters from a swap I did in the spring then I could of in a year on my own. Pictures are nice but, nothing compares to having the real thing and fishing them.
