You already have one problem. Why dump more on top of that? Doesn't sound like fun and it's suppose to be.
i have caught plenty of fish on plugs.. i know exactly what i want them to do.. only problem is the plugs i have caught fish are incredibly hard to come by these days. (excluding my freshwater assortment) been pluggin since i was six.

i have a very good idea of how i want my stuff to act. thus building em myself. since i cant find em. i'm just wandering how the process goes to getting them to that point. i hear "test test test" aka trial and error... and then "study study study" which is more of a hypothesis approach. i guess it all boils down to what i asked though and the results come out to be trial and error.
