How bad will plug prices be at RISSA this year?

I will say, what if a business like SWE instead of selling BM Cowboys for $23.00 like they did last year at RISAA bumped the price on the same plug to $35.00.......do you think that would help in keeping the flippers at bay? Or would the price just be that much higher? I think the latter!

I catch such few big fish that I never lose my plugs so I don't mind paying an arm and a leg. As long as I tie good knots and don't cast off the plug, I can keep the same plug on all year.

I don't think its necessarily supply and demand setting the price on the secondary market. Its almost like a bubble where people see what plugs go for and then thats now the price. I've seen brand new plugs go for $x online when their $10 cheaper in B&Ts right in the same area the person is buying them is from. I'd rather have the builder make the $ rather than someone who is taking advantage of someone else b/c they know where to find the plugs.
