Hahn Plugs

Not much of a plug caster myself, mostly a BigFish and Tattoo guy when I do, so I need a little help and info on BOB HAHN PLUGS. Some of you guys know me and I assure you I have no affiliation with this guy, but I remember hearing his name somewhere. Any help, much appreciated. Thanks.............

Catch'em up,
ThomCat

Overall pretty good plugs. Nothing fancy but they get the job done.

Bob Hahn was a NJ plug maker out of Pt. Pleasant NJ for many years.
His plugs are well known and are fish catchers for sure.

He stopped making them for about 10 years and then started up again after he retired and is now living in Florida.

They were always reasonably priced but have gone up recently.

Imho you can't go wrong with any of his plugs, especially his Dannies and Surfsters,

but you can't go wrong with any of Tatoo's or BF plugs either.

Still in business, cranking them out of Florida now... simple paint schemes and finish is durable... Swap out the hooks... can't stress that enough...

Look for them in Brick and Mortar shops... allot less $$... Ebay store is high because listing fee's and selling fee's are thru the roof... also Paypal isn't cheap either...

cms sells them cheap. a danny is 12 bucks. i'm surprised to see a commen that the durability is good as i'm use to hearing the opposite. i picked up a few to try this season.

The paint job of the Hahn plugs look like they were done at Maaco with the over spray on the belly grommets.
