Guys, I thought it was a thankless job.... but you guys have proven otherwise.. now I know that there's hope for the future, for peace, good will to men and women alike.... I see a brighter world ahead, who would have thought that a swap, SO crazy, so riddled with set backs and deadlines could solve the much bigger riddle of world peace, but I digress.........

Tagger that plug is a bomber substitute that has a guitar pick in place of the lip. It is WAY TOO time consuming to make a lot of. They swim pretty good, but if you guys have trouble getting it to swim, try changing hook sizes I recommend 2/0 but 1/0 are sometimes better, also try putting a splt ring on the nose loop if it doesn't swim as is.

Christian glad to hear you already caught on the popper. You've gotta be the first to catch on a swap plug....i havent even put hooks on mine yet

A few sticks are made out of maple, but most drumsticks are made from hickory.

I play the drums, canalman obvously plays guitar, maybe we can talk BM into doing one of his raps. If we can't find a bass player, we could get one of the members to play the XXX jug (one of my favorite instruments)
