Do you make a tool such as this? maybe I could make you something a spray booth or something
My two old musso plugs look like the grommets were punched from the inside and were a real bitch to get out. The inner wall of the grommet looked like it was punched into the body of the hook hole and seemed to work well, so I understand what you're saying. Not sure musso did this or if the previous owner of my plugs did, but its a good idea.

It's not the bait
At the end of your line
It's the fishing hole
Where all the fish is blind
