Ahhhwww Jeeez... Nah. We only have one custom soft plastic bait around here. LEDGERUNNERs! Got Rubba?


"I'm really stoked to try them"

Sadly I was hoping this would not happen but it does appear as though we have another "Plugging" for "Penetrators" on another site. Now if I had just shut up here, sometime tomorrow we would have someone from Penetrator saying in a JP Waterman voice - "Why yes, I have your Penetrator right here, err, I mean at Goose Hummock" "And try the Ugly Mug down in..."

Listen - I'm not going to knock the baits - I haven't used them before so I can't say one way or the other. But I'm not a fan of people plugging a product or bringing up a product on their first post in what appears to be a sales pitch. This REEKS of deceptive advertising & spam. This REEKS the same way it did over on SS & SOL.

Hey "Plugger" - I may be wrong and if so I appologize but I seriously doubt it. But this smells just like the start of previous threads at other sites. new member #1 "Have you heard about..." new member #2 "Gee, no tell me about this wonderfull profuct..." new member #1 "Well 77, you see it's like this..."...

I also find it interesting that I just had an e-mail from MarineTropical the other day, the owners / distributors of this product and I told him I would check them out. That's when I heard it was these guys...

Again, I'm not gonna knock your product - I have nothing of value to say about it, but I really truly believe that this reeks of setting up free advertising...
