How many hours do you spend fishing per year? Can you afford not to fish with better quality?

I like thru wired plugs. I don't care for a brass eyelet cast in a plastic body unless I am fishing 10# test. If you are fishing 60#braid with triple rings and ower stingers or 6X VMC's...what do you think is going to give...the plastic. Bass will break that plug on a scrub-off with ease (that is why they eat it...they are just playing with you)

kick it up a notch...buy a real plug.
I hear ya Sandman...I am changing my thinking on the plastic plugs a bit.....time to start tossing bigger wood
that is the first one that broke for me with ....but not the first straightened hook though..........
