Mr Pogie for paint
Tattoo for thinking
BM for getting off the beaten path
I dont collect plugs nor really follow history, I see something that takes off in my mind and work with it or come up with something new to find out I am just reinventing the wheel.
I would have to say that Stan Gibbs (who's watching) was the most influencial even though he's not hitting keys around here.

I wood totally agree: everything that has been posted here has been"just reinventing the wheel"even my lobster...given time everything comes around again from[r.i.p] past builder's not yet discovered by new builder's.There's been many a great plug built by alot of new builder's to single out a few. |

Amongst the builders here, I feel like a kid in the Candy Store with a nickel! I don't know what to grab first, so I promise myself to steal that design, no that one, oo look at that! Well, you know what I mean. Lately though, I can't get enough of the older, more traditional designs. But they all seem to have a gravitational field....

mrpogie for sure. Paint and everything is flawless freak's flag plugs are always cool. Some talent in his painting skills. Same with bernzy. guzz plugs look great and work real well. Picked up a lot of tips from him on topwater plugs. Definitely helped me in designing my own topwater plugs.

There is a method to my madness (to be revealed much later)  . This is not a philospohical discussion of the plug arts on a grand scale - just the opinions of the members here of influential plugs from other members here.... |

I think JohnR is looking for builders who may have stirred the pot a bit? Got others thinking maybe with an original idea or a new spin on the old wheel?? Innovative and thinking out of the box perhaps?? Is that what you want JohnR?

Almost time to get our fish on!!!

Nope - what I am looking for is either plugs from this site that have influenced you, made you want to cast real bad to a bass, or said "H&%*(# Sh27#^&# - That's $^^%*& AWESOME!!!"
Not pot stirring at all, in fact, plugs which everyone rates two thumbs way up 
And pictures  |

The paint work of Bernzy and Ryan Smith aka Lab1 is what I aspire to!
I think that Bernzy's Surf Howdy in any size and Lab1's Big Eye Swimmers are the most original plugs I have seen in awhile.....and they catch fish! |

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.
1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!
It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

This thread is not to vote for the best plug or builder. I'm looking for , ohh, the top 20 . Seriously, this is not contest and it isn't to say one guy is better than the the other. It is about the plugs and those that built them. To give you an idea, in this thread we've go OJ's Needles, Freaks Flag, CS and the deadly Squid, Tat's Spook, PNG's Paint, Slip's Tiger Needle, MAC's pikie, BM's Phat Boy Danny, Berzy's Howdy, Hab's Needle, and so on, and so on - not leaving anyone out just that the list could go on... We have a LOT of different people and a lot of differnet things. But I guess I'm looking for an anthology of sorts of plugs and people from here that have inspired you all in various ways. My intention of this thread might be evident around PLug Fest...
But again, not a competition with this thread or to play favorites, just an open thread of inspirational work done by you folks... |
