Eben,

Y'know I was just thinking about that today............ oh yeah plugs.

Redneck had to bow out guys so one less plug for everyone to make... sorry Slip I'm keeping yours. . Has anyone actually sent a package out yet? and how far along is everyone?

I haven't moved since last check... they're hanging painted and waiting for finish, eyes, wire and hardware.

I have some small plugs....kind of like Howdy's only smaller for schoolie fishing.....they just need wiring and done if those are ok....otherwise I am behind quite a bit. Work has me very busy the last 2 weeks and getting busier. You guys like small?

Does Redneck need more time?

If he's out, then I guess I am not 1 plug short afterall so no , you're not keeping it Dave, that is John's plug.

Bigfish, we like ALL plugs we don't descriminate. Do what you are able to.

I just had a major disaster involving my swap plugs..i clearcoated all of them a few nights ago and when I went to take the wire that i use to hang them, just about every wire was sticking to the nose of my darter. So, when i went to remove th wire, it ripped the epoxy and pulled the paint up with it. I'm feeling pretty bummed about this, as i put lots of love into these and i dont feel comfortable sending out a damaged plug to anyone.

It looks like I have 2 options- ask for more time, (probably a week and a half)

or I can bow out..... I dont want to bow out, but i dont want to hold up the process.

13 plugs is alot to screw up, but i am going to patch them and fish them this season, so its not a total loss.

Look, I want an EBEN PLUG. make them , fix them, do what you gotta do. The fish aren't here yet anyway. Maybe try putting the wire in the plug before you epoxy. You don't want to miss out on this swap guys.

Do your best guys, that's all.

If Redneck needs more time, then give it to him.

I don't think others will mind some extra time.
I got mine done when I could because I knew I'd be under the gun if I waited.

okay thanks

all of you will get an eben plug.

Slip, the wire that stuck was a 's' hook that I made to slide through my nose loop so I can hang them the bend in the wire touched the sides of the plugs and got stuck there as the plugs clearcoat hardened.....

next time round I will hang them from the tail.
