I learned a lot from watching you, thanks for sharing the technique.
As soon as I splurge on some steb centers I'm going to give it a try!

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.

All I can say is WOW !!!
The plug builders are getting better then ever! What a great time I had.
Thanks to everyone who pulled this event off, Trust me it was many.
Thanks again. Things have come a long way, from Slip's house to this!
It was great to see everyone again.

Scott - you were missed but Slip got the Crazy Banana up in your honor - it was even through wired!

DZ - great to see you! Thanks as well for the donated trip!

And thanks to the long drive contingent. I think today had the most traveling from NJ so far and Lou, while only 100 miles away probably had to double that to get there.

Its also funny when someone (Karl Fahrverah) makes TWO novelty plugs that he needs to enter a can of into the fishable category

Oh, and nice delivery from Herb Reed & Sluggo on those new squid colors - also cool to see the kids getting a couple of those in addition to the adults

I said it before and I'll say it again, big thumbs up to Slipknot (and Melissa). He has done more for Plugfest and for many many years, than anyone !

I didn't bring much to trade today as I haven't gotten much done this year that doesn't already have someone elses name on it . Next year for sure.

Moses, here's what I walked away with.

After the fest I had some plugs I needed to test swim, so I tested these too. Lower your plug does just what you said it did. Sweet.

Striperknight, I know you said your water was frozen so I tested your little darter. Its perfect, slow -moderate retrieve and an occasional twitch and it was down 12-18" with a nice tight wiggle.

The problem with giving you a plug as PM found out .It's like feeding a stray dog. They don't ever leave.
