Ran out of your old stock, eh
? Well, there are certain ones that I do buy - primarily the stubby needlefish. I haven't bought a danny or pencil popper or darter in a while. I probably will pick up a casting swimmer or two but that's about it.
I will buy regular production like SuperStrikes, semi-customs like Beachmasters & The Mad Polrussian, and I have a schwingin' assortment of custom stuff from a lot of the guys this year that I'm DYING to try out. That will be my likely Pluggage for this year...
As for Gibbs - I'm not sure they take much of a hit as others continue to buy them. Also with more people having hooks in the water than ever before, people are going to probably replace the people that resource and go elsewhere.
