Precisely, and it requires substantial skill to do it. But put the same guy in the rocks at Gay Head and his attitude about plugs would change very quickly. To suggest the opinion of a guy who fishes where plugs are not needed is a good indication of the value of plugs in general seems misguided. It also overlooks the real value of plugs, namely that getting a large fish to eat a plug provides a greater sense of accomplishment to many of us than fooling the same (or multiples thereof) fish with bait or lead. Not everyone feels that way, but those that do are happy to have such quality plugs available even at high cost.
