A few special ones make it to the Wall of Fame. Most perish trying or are discarded, broken along the way.

Keep fishing them until they don't work any longer.

It's not the bait
At the end of your line
It's the fishing hole
Where all the fish is blind

Keep using them (especially when the bloofish are around  ) until the plug no longer works. |

They will always work......I demote my beaters to Bluefish duty! If I lose them.....so be it!  I love getting into schools of blues so its good to have a stash of old warriors handy when they appear in numbers! |
Almost time to get our fish on!!!

I do the same only every once and a while I'll take one of the wall and take my chances........Tho when you loose a good plug it never seems to be on something worth loosing it on. It's hardly ever on some huge cow or a fish that would just make your day......For me it seems like it's always on some small shoolie which has taken your plug and a blue fish decides to part your line. Or in a shool of bass and the only blue fish seems to eat it...Or just that lazyness we get some times and you don't check that nick in your line and there it go's in the next cast...either way it's a sad thing...women come and go, but loosing a plug is hart breaking... |

Repaint, rewire, an reuse. I use as Bluefish baits, aw well. And some are given away. I have a wall full of the ones I have used over the years. I can't see throwing a memory away. Because to me, that's what each one holds. A memory of a time out there, doing this thing we do.  |
