It's getting to the point where I will probably unload a lot of vintage plugs. I like a metal lip or pencil on occasion just to practice casting.

I recall a few years ago, my wife said to me...you have all these plugs...but you fish eels most of the time.
I started fishing plugs more in recent years to justify my expenditures in this area...make sense to you?

I buy about 10-15 old beat up plugs a year. I take them apart, learn and rebuild them. I then give them to kids, or guys that can't afford wood.

I probably have at least 50 Hawg Hunters--some still NIP. I brought about 70 Superstrike plugs with me from NY when I moved, along with at least 30 Beachmasters. About the same number of Habs needles, and dozens of plastic swimmers--Bombers, Redfins, Yozuris, Megabaits, etc. Gotta have at least 30 Gibbs Canal Specials alone, plus another 30 of other assorted Gibbs--bottles, Polarises, Stubbies, darters.

Last year I think I bought about 5 of Mike T's CCT pencils and Polarises. That was it. I need more plugs like I need another head.

Now---ask me how much lead and plastic I burn through in a year

I bought over 20 this last week alone. It's hard to say, over the course of a year. But I would guess, alot.

Be encouraging, not discouraging
