I will have the first meeting at my house...I will provide coffee, etc.
You only need to bring your plug bag(s) and I can really help you.
PS- I need to buy another tackle box!

and then I oftentimes fear for my pluggage. When bluefish show up, my pluggage, my poor, poor pluggage. I miss them when they're gone. Need to make sure I have enough pluggages and try to keep them away from those bad, bad bluefish.

I thought that I was OK until I cleaned out the sand sled today. Haven't been on the sand since min-Nov. and there were at least 20 plugs and jigs in there. Might as well just leave them. I wake at 2:30 AM thinking about color schemes and types of plugs. Constantly thinking about what to turn next. ( I think dannys for a while) Plug this and plug that all day and night . Crap !! I'm outa pikie lips and 1/0 swivels. I'm sinking.........

Hi, my name is Jess, and I'm a plugaholic.

I admit that I'm powerless when it comes to PAS and that only through the help of my higher power, which I choose to call Morone Saxatilus, will I be able to go back to live lining and chunking.

My sponsor has told me to speak up more in meetings and to stay away from people, places, and playthings that would tempt me to purchase more plugs...............................

I always thought he waz full of SHEEEEET!

I CAIN"T BE CURED!!! I'm not DONE till I own all the plugs ever built by anyone, anywhere, for anything STRIPEY!!! I NEEEEEED wood, plastic, rubber all artificials EVER MANUFACTURED, EVER!!!!!

So, who's with me? We'll go camou, black our faces, sport ninja black attire, and there's a particular BassPro Shop I know of that needs a midnight inventory reduction mission. They're the pharmacy, dooods, we ain't hurting the guy on the street, we'll just hit the man. If that works and we don't get busted, there's a #^&#^&#^&#^&'S opening up around the corner from me with delivery trucks scheduled for......................

Oh.................YEAH, I gotts it Baaaaaaaaaaad!!!

between man and nature shall not be broken."~~ Leo Tolstoy

Happy Hunting to ALL!

If you had too many plugs would you commit plugicide?

How much it controls ones life.

Just dont anyone start telling us about thier relationship with thier blowup plug. That would be too much information.

I may be a plugaholic-lets see.

On Friday I snuck down the elvevator at work, stood at a corner and a Jeep pulled up. I got in and we went around the block. I handed the driver some money in exchange for a brown paper bag. I got out and got back to work with a bag and a Bernzy Commander.

Does that qualify?

I'm a jigaholic. But only by necessity. I probably leave 50-100 a year somewhere on the bottom of a lead mine called the Canal.

Plugs? Nah. I spend less than $100 a year on them. I have hundreds to start with that I've accumulated over almost 40 years. New wood is nice, but I catch all the fish I want on plastic Atom 40s and Atom Jrs that averaged about $5 a pop when purchased. Some of the Jrs were like $3.99 on sale at Bennys. I still have dozens of Gibbs Canal Specials that I bought for $4 or $5 apiece right from the old shop in Sagamore Beach. All of the Hawg seconds that didn't cost me a nickel. Plus the "donations" I got for various favors I've done folks. I'm set for life. I might by one or two of something new just to try out (latest venture was 2 Hab 3 oz pencils when Mike had his blowout sale), but that's about my limit for any one year.

Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools, because they have to say something.
