Is there any money in this plug business?

Just curious...

From what I see, it looks like a labor of love to most of you guys. IMO for the effort you put into hand made plugs, even at 20-25 per it seems like a futile business to make a ton of cash. I didn't see any H1's in the parking lot at the SB.com get together.

I know most of you are wood turners but what about the mass produced plastic injection lure business? I know the start-up is higher but is there any real money in this either? For example is Yo-Zuri or alike making any real money with overseas cheap labor and mass production facilities? What do you think their net/year is ?...ballpark
