Assuming all plugs have the same action , I wouild take the one with the best finish and hardware. First , I would hate to lose the fish of a lifetime because a cheap hook or swivel broke . Second , those epoxy finishs protect the integrity of the wood and keep it from absorbing water thereby changing the intended action. Spend the extra few bucks for quality.
Unless, your throwing them at bluefish.Then cheap out .
I got tired of tossing out a Gibbs plug after one or two nights of hard use.Their finish sucks and their hardware isn't much better.Now I either use Beachmaster, Habs or make my own . I would rather use Beachmaster than have to make my own though.
