When they cost 10-12 bucks, if you got a dud it was no big deal, part of the price of fishing wooden plugs. But if you are new to throwing big wood, and are caught in in the hype surrounding BM plugs enough to consider spending 30, 40, or 50 bucks for something to fish, the possibility of buying a dud is something to consider. Here's some more proof.....which darter would swim the best?

I hear you man but i know the variations are not accidental and are taking place purposufully, to ensure that they swim properly. Most people believe using the same dimensions without regard to wood will get you the same results and that is not always 100% true.
Agreed on your point and that is why i won't pay $50 for a plug.
I think that BM receives a lot of bad publicity for the wrong reasons and this thread may be adding to it. So i wanted to put in my 2 cents. i definetly can tell you know your stuff. Happy new year and good fishin in 2008
