 well if someone wants to volunteer to come up with an initial investment of 2 grand, then maybe it could happen.  John put a lot of time and work into that plug shirt design but it is so expensive to produce that even sold at 20 to 25 each it might break even. It has so many colors that adds to cost and the minimum run is alot of shirts to commit to. 150 shirts is a lot of shirts to sell. The other route to go with the shirts would not give as high a quality but ya don't need a commitment and they sell and ship. I know John has no time and is not setup to sell them by mail so that is why it's best to try to sell them at these type events. He will have some of the surfcaster shirts that he had at Striperfest and the last leg at M&D's if anyone wants one of those btw.

Slip is right - I spent 100+ hours on a shirt that was too expensive to realistically do. At the time I had a couple grand (yes, 2,000 smackers) that still would have nearly broken the S-B bank allocated to that shirt. I can't do it this time around.
I WILL have some of these shirts as prizes though for Plugfest. I can do a few in L O W numbers at H I G H cost to me which is why I'll run off a few as prizes. I don't even have one

If anyone has a contact that can supply AYC, please take the ball and run with it. I don't know where to find it  I think we used to get 8/4X8/4 in different lengths. Maybe one of the commercial builders could help us?

just answering your post is all Bob, not singling anyone out.
you aren't the only one that agrees with not having them filming there. My fault for bringing it up, we covered that last year, sorry
If flap thinks numbskull is toast, I guess he must have a pretty good contest plug.

Looks like we might have to have a beauty pageant also. What will you guys do for the talent portion? One piece swimsuit though and I hope to god you have no compromising photos out there from your younger days.

How about just a best dressed surf or boat fisherman section with a casting talent section undertaken in the dim light of a small red led, no live bait tho?

I don;t know if OTW will be there but I will be covering it for the Fisherman and yes please one-piece suits only and none of those ones that make it look like you're smuggling a small load of ping-pong balls across the border!

Good you're ruling out Speedos. That fcking Eddy would probably cheat and stick a potato in his.............then again being from Brockton he'd likely put it down the back.

Hey, who actually caught that fish? Isn't that your rod in his hands or did you do like you offered for Art and hook the fish and let him reel it in? hahahahahahahaha, just kidding!
BTW, I blew up that picture and by scaling it to Eddy's body have now figured out the formula for the Jig man spook dimensions!
Thanks again your too kind.
