Took some of my Dad's (Plugbillder) new plugs over the the Reserve Channel in South Boston today. Larry-Thanks for pushing about testing. The Flaptails were great, just like I was told on the Lido thread, the flaptail on the swivel spins, pops up and thrashes the surface, WOW!. The one just attached via split ring just wiggles. Going to change that one to a swivel as well. These will be deadly, at night, among boulders. Heck, they lok so good they could be deadly anytime. The bottle neck swimmer, really nice wiggle action about 3 feet down can't wait till a nice heavy surf for it. The metal lips both dove nicely with a nice wobble motion. Also, several of the plugs he turned since Plugfest now have scale patterns (he is experimenting with several kinds of mesh) as well as micro glitter. He learned a lot from you guys from talking and observing at Plugfest and it shows.
