S-B BENEFIT AUCTION: STUFFED NIGHT PLUG BAG

[Mr. Sandman]

I have just about everyone’s contribution to the plug auction and I wanted to post this photo for all to see, as the collection is getting pretty massive. First, I want to once again thank all of you who contributed to this incredible selection of plugs. This photo clearly does not showcase the individual workmanship but most of you guys know the kind of work these fisherman (and fisherwomen) do...simply beautiful. It is a pleasure just to look at them! The plug bag can't handle the load, and it is pretty darn big. (Nor would I dare carry this much gear down to the beach!)

Each time I use one I will think of the maker as well as the time and effort that went into building them. I’ll try to post a pic of the cow they nail later this spring! Thanks again…

A very appreciative,
Sandman
