I like ebay for the beaters! Those two big white masterlures, got for $2.45! I bought em so I could copy them, if they worked back then, they will work now. Some stuff on ebay gets rediculus. I love to make my own plugs, and ebay is great for finding old junkers to copy :-}

Mac, I see that Christian bunker plug hanging there
CapeSam, I like yer rod holder, that's a great idea.
I like the custom stuff, even more when you turn it into a beater, there is no shortage of talent or class when it comes to this group of guys....my .02 cents johnny

bm, please pick up a few for me next time your at the dump.
If you can also grab the boxes.. Before you ship them up to me please add a few of your special striped bass lures. I would swing over your house but I was told that their was a swat team on cannie marra drive protecting a shed for some old guy who kinda lives in and out of the shed.Must be some weird people on the cape ><>

Thanks Christian and congrats on your going legal on the street. Now you need to find the right buggy to cruise the surfline at night and scoop chicks in the day!

Salty, I think your right!

Let me try it tomorrow when the sun is out so I can take the shots outside and get the true colors. Also I got a plug from Fishingfreak that has a wild paint job ( it looks like the tank on a custom chopped Harley) but I need to take that pic outdoors as well.

you cannot duplicate them, they are special plugs with super mojo built into them Eben

That was a private joke between me and Steve....I sent him that one that I finished as a blem cuz I wanted him to see it.
I'm not going to copy it, the chinese factory i am going to send the pics to are going to copy it
