Charity plug auction for the troops Lot 1

Up for auction, are these plugs that were generously donated in 2006 for display at the Sail Loft (now Melville Grille) waterfront restaurant. This collection of plugs and tins represent some of the best talent across the region. This is a unique opportunity to collect (and fish) elite plugs from top professionals as well as difficult to get home builders.
Lot 1

Builder: Afterhours
Style: Swimmer
Colors: Custom black/white crackle finish
Length: 6""
Weight: ~2.75 ounces
Notes: A crackle finish can't be done any better!

Builder: Redneck
Style: Spook
Colors - Parrot
Length: 5.25"
Weight: ~2 ounces
Notes:

Builder: Piemma
Style: Swimmer
Colors: Yellow/white
Length: 6.75"
Weight: ~3 ounces
Notes: Great heavy swimmer for big Block Island surf

Builder: The Dad Fisherman
Style: Pencil
Colors: Blue/purple/silver
Length: 7"
Weight: ~2 ounces
Notes: Nice scale pattern


Great care has been made to ensure the plugs have been kept in the same condition in which they were donated. All plug weights are approximite or in some cases estimated. Builders, please feel free to add any additional information you think would benefit the auction.

Winning bidders may pick up locally in the Fall River, MA area or have them shipped at no additional cost (Lower 48 only).
100% of the price goes directly to help soldiers suffering from traumatic brain injuries connected with their service in Iraq and Afghanistan. I am going to cover shipping. The winning bidder will make payment directly to the charity through my fundraising page via credit card or check. All donations are tax deductible.

A huge thank you to those who donated back in 2006 and Spence for bringing these out now.

The auction ends May 1st at noon.


For those of you that don’t know me personally , before I started fishing I spent several years in the military including over 2 years in Iraq. This cause means a lot to me.
Feel free to check out my fundraising page:

Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio

Given the diversity of the human species, there is no “normal” human genome sequence. We are all mutants.

Yep, I do believe we have a winner

You can pay from the link on this page. Once complete I can ship them to you for free or as you're close can drop them off later this week.

And THANK YOU.

thanks,
