idea
here's a thought, new poster by the way and you guys make me laugh and provide a ton of information about fishing at the same time and I really appreciate the site, I plan to spend the off months scrounging around the house for stuff to sell on ebay, it's amazing what is lurking around here and what people will pay for it out there, I've noticed that most of the plug builders mentioned on this site accept Paypal on their sites, so you can effectively and easily turn your trash into nice shiny new plugs and never leave your house! I'll let you know how many plugs my junk translated into, Happy Holidays to all...Scott

Tackle Direct - they have the slimmest margins....I'd go there instead of paying the high prices the sponsors here charge.

I like supporting locals so I check capt. Don's first. He stocks Afterhours and I use them a lot. Second choice would be buying direct from the maker's website if there is one and it's possible. The makers who are sponsors here make nice stuff and I can't see ever NEEDING any more than is offered by them in the way off better quality semi customs. SWE is a ride for me but it certainly is a nice store. Be warned that if you go there to meet someone to pick up a rod you bought in the classifieds and you get there early to look around and Steve McKenna is there all alone and you ask to see a few of those reels that everyone likes so much (VS) and he shows you several... you may be scraping around for several hundred $$$ in the next week or two.

None ruder than you RHM.
That fish is not even close to 46"/38#
You're not hoisting a 38# fish with a couple of fingers wrapped around the top of your plug.
Do us a favor. Buy a scale and learn how to use a tape measure. Oh, and leave your crap over at the other place.   |

OCM - There is no flippin' way that fish is 38 pounds - no way, no chance. I think you need to dial up the truthi-meter and dial back the bully and attitude. Or you will be the first "voted off the island" this year |

49 inch 21 inch girth measured and released taken on a black mambo dunno the weight hope shes still swimming. Its funny because I remember when I bought that lure, it was the last show msba had at the mall basement, when you went in the guy was setup midway through the floor on the left-hand-side, they were 2 for the price of 1. I think he was asking 6$ for two.
All lures have a place in the bag, whether its something that nasa made the clear coat for or a mambo minnow they all take fish, when presented the right way in the right conditions. 
As far as customs go, salty here a sponsor does sales for members, saltwater edge has a notification system, in case a product comes in that you're looking for comes into their shop and Mike Thomas at M&D's has a great selection of customs.
Also think of hitting up some shows coming up and try and get there early you can usually score a bargain or two.

This thread was about custom plugs and where the guy can find them cheaper, then you come along and RUDELY insult him by figuring him as just a weekend kinda guy, like that makes any difference at all when he fishes  and you have to make a lookeeme post by adding fish pictures like you are the greatest fisherman of all because you make your own custom plugs. Give us a break It doesn't even matter how big the fish is, it's your attention craving that sidetracks the thread that gets peoples' dander up and raises the BS meter.
Does that spell it out for you now Mike?
Do us a favor and go make your one cast.
I don't know why I even bother, you seem like you will never change  |

Please, that fish is 38LB's no more than your other fraudulent fish was 46", 47", or whatever you claimed - OH wait a minute - you even lied about being the one to catch the fish to screw Jimmy out of a whole lot of plugs. Enough with the lies... |
