Thanks for the pics Slingah.....
A huge thanks and my gratitude goes out to all those who participated last night......all those who donated plugs for the Charity and to the volunteers who helped set up last night! What a great time it was, I hope all who came enjoyed the evening......from what I heard though.....looks like we might have to have "Plug Night 3" next year......and in a bigger hall!  As Beetle said, because of all of you, we raised $1,411.00 for the Childrens Hospital in Boston last night and that felt really great....thanks again on behalf of Bassmaster, MSBA and myself! As usual, I did not get to speak with many of you at any length as I was busy runnin' the show....but it was great to see you all and say hello! Thanks to all the site members whom I had not had the pleasure to have met yet for coming up and saying hello to me....nice meeting many new faces! A special thanks to JohnR for running this site and having such a classy bunch of individuals on board as we do here......cept'n of course for BM......he is in a class by himself!  Thanks Bassmaster for doin' what you do so well! You builders never, ever cease to amaze me with your work.......you inspired me, you tutored me, and dammit......have made me a plug building junkie like yourselves and for that I thank you! As Bassmaster said...."You can never build enough of em'....and you can never have enough of them"......ain't it the truth Bubba!
Special Note: Long distance award went to the one and only Justplugit for driving all the way to "Plug Night 2" from New Jersey .......poor, plug crazed bastard! Thanks for coming up JPI....it was a pleasure meeting you!
Thanks again all! |
Almost time to get our fish on!!!

BF, That was a great time. It was good to put a few more faces w/ people from the site here. You just need to change the Location closer to the North Shore I can pretty much guarentee I'll be at Plug Night III
I am also now the proud owner of my 1st Bassmaster needle, which I plan to put to the test this weekend.
Also picked up one from the Newell Guy which is earmarked for the Fall Run.
Once again Great Time, Great People, and an Awesome Job...Thanx |

Great Time
Plug nite was incredible. The workmanship you folks put into you plugs is mindboggling. Dave (Bassmaster) was amazing, his plugs are like artwork. He put a lot of time and effort into that presentation and he should be commended. Although we all had a great time watching dave and browsing all the great plugs, the true winners were the children. Great job folks.
BTW - Dave, where can I get a couple of your needlefish? Do you sell them?

I am sorry that I missed last nite, I should have paid more attention to when and where it was. It sounds like it was a good time. It would have been a great chance to meet some of you guys as well. I will be at the next one.

Great Show!!! All involved should be commended and thanked for hosting such a great event! I wish I brought a notebook. There is no way I'm going to remember everything.
The plugs on display were incredible and it was great to meet a few of you guys.
Thanks!

We should have done nametags, but it was a pleasure to meet some more guys from the site, but I missed a lot of you.
Hope to fish with some of ya'all in the future. |

Guys & Gals - first I want to thank all of you for being the class acts you all are - Evevn JPI was all smiles after we trash talked Jersey
Seriously, as usual, it was a great job by all involved, from BigFish for setting this up, to all the donations by EVERYONE, to BM turning and showing his schtuff, to the hecklers in the front row...
All the plug builders and rubba guys! All the members that showed! Everyone - class bunch of people!!!
FF - SWEEEEET PLug - pictures don't do that justice. Congrats to Swimmer for winning it to! |

Couldn't have said it better myself. My apologies guys, I can only imagine the tremendous effort that goes into Plug Night. Just too many irons in the fire last night. I swear, I'll make Plug Night III.  |
