But herein lies the question: Do the fancy paint jobs catch more fish or more fisherman?

Both if the plug is made well, swims as designed and......catches fish!

It doesn't matter to me whether people want to sell plugs for more than they pay or not, there will always be people that do it! If they see something they think will be hot, there will always be opportunistic people that will try to take advantage of it (and other anglers).
The idea that any of it is the plug makers fault is ridiculous!!! Having seen first-hand what a plug maker goes through from start to finish with the creation of each plug, it's easy to see why they don't make a million of each!!!!!
I think the idea is to get the plugs that are hot, that catches your eye, that catches the fish and to actually use them, not to horde them, hang them and not try to make more money off each of them than the people that made them do!!!!

If I was a plug maker I would use the increase in oil price as an excuse to increase the price of their lures.....what the hell every other business does!
