Hmmm!...problem's do abound in tight circle's.I think it was Slip that said if your selling plug's commerically[to me that's in a store] and not out of your shop,,but then you have sponcer's that do help pay for bill's here.John is very understanding in the fact one does need to resupply as it were to make more,so selling a few here and there isn't going to bring the mountain down.You just need not to advertise your ware's by posting stuff that will go on the market,,fair is fair...then on the other hand that depend's on who you know as to what doesn't get deleted[pic's]??
John need's help[no not upstairs]he has a great mind..it's sorting out the rule's so everyone know's 2+2 is 4...now I don't mind saying that other place is out an out for the one and only[owner] if he can't make a buck off your stuff no one is going too,so off with your head if there's any hint of making money and he doesn't get his share.That will bring the mountain down...oh! my .02........carefull spy's are everywhere what a joke.

BOAT fish do count.

In total agreement Capesam,
Nothing I was posting there was for sale, The problem came with people posting others plugs. Unfortunely a few westcoaster found the site and began showing my regular stuff with fish attached. They did it innocently not thinking of reprecussions. Its just like this thread, Show me Your Fixters!!! Should Mike get in trouble? Well in years past if someone would of done that in Vegas it was okay. I even did a long post of going to Mike's shop and buying plugs. So there is the dilemma, I followed the basic guidlines as I will do here "No Forsale sign posts) Plugs at this time I am experimenting on or color patterns I'm goofing with. But both you and I cannot control what someone else posts nor can they go and delete or edit anymore what they posted when it was pointed out to them what they were doing is wrong.
Again I am not mad at anyone nor do I hold any grudges, I just don't feel safe in Vegas anymore. I'm sure others have the same feelings. Anyway this is a much better neighborhood. Ask a question and it gets answered by more than one person whose word is golden, something that is missing in Vegas.
I do have some new stuff I will be putting up in the near future just like many others it's time to fiddle in the shop with ideas that you came up with during those long hours of fishing. The mini pikies were one, I'm working on a bomber subsitute that has gone through many stages with the newest one being test swum soon. Another is a wooden bucktail thingie, heavy enough to cast but with a bit of bouyancy to keep it suspended longer in the strike zone.
As for paint I am goofing with the worlds most boring color pattern. Red and white. We all know that a pencil popper in that color is like magic yet so boring to paint. Time to try and make someone say man thats cool.


Its only art if it don't catch fish!

I'll admit I am one of those innocent westcoasters. But I never intended to
get anyone in trouble or harrass anyone. In my case
when you don't build plugs to trade you can either trade something of value,
like really nice fishing reels, buy the plugs from the plug builder who is willing/allowed to sale or you can get really really lucky, which I have on a few occasion, and the plug builder generously sends you one for free. my favorite way to aquire a plug BTW. Thanks to all those who have donated to my small but growing collection of Beautys, You know who you are. Again
it was never my intention to harass or get anyone in trouble. I just would like to have a plug from all the Fine plug builders here and on the other plug(lure) sites. Again my appologies to those builders I have done wrong too.

I don't think anyone question's yours or 919sickness(steelhead)'s intention.
winch has a good sense of humor, I hope you 2 do also.


I think the Mayor of Vegas changed his tune a bit after I pointed some assumptions out to him, it's the best we can do. I'm sure this too shall pass.

We don't need to rehash stuff from over there, on this forum any further. I know alot of you visit both sites and I like to also. There are things to learn on both sites and great builders on both sites as well.

You will never see JohnR ask anyone how much they paid for a plug on this forum

anyway, have a good fall
I have football to watch tonight
