I am not one of the judges but I think subtle improvements would be fine but not sure about addition of eyes,maybe one of the judges will comment.


rookie is a new builder, first year in the contest and new at building plugs

IMPORTANT PLEASE!!!!

make a note on your form if you wish to keep your plug or donate it to the raffle!

I'd go as close to Original as possible ,, Example ,, Eyes on the Professors Bass Aqua last year would have totally ruined it .


On the Rookie I'd say 1st year builders ,, If guys have been building for years and want to pawn themselves off as rookies ,,that's kind of lame ..

I agree. Started building last April / May, caught my first fish of the year on one of my first plugs....now I can't STOP!! (Come to think of it, any fish I caught on a plug last year was on one of mine).

please pay attention to the whole entry form
thanks

that means do NOT put your name on the form.

I think that this is VERY important.... if the original had glass eyes, so should the remake, if the eyes were painted on so be it, the remake should be painted as well... same goes for hardware... as close as possible...

All plugs should be in a paper bag when handed over at the table

Slipknot,

Is there a pre-registration for entering plugs?

Thanks,
Mike

Thanks everyone
it all went well

And next year it will go even smoother

You'll have to get your contest entries done earlier next time, because they will need to be mailed in one week(that is 7 days) before the plugfest.
With 42 entries this year, it is too much work and too time consuming to handle it the morning of plugfest. The day is too short.

So there WILL be a pre-registration next year

I forgot you asked this question Mike, and after plugfest I was talking with my wife and she suggested everyone mail them ahead of time. I thought that would be perfect.

see you all out there fishing plugs soon hopefully, if not next plugfest.

Will that mean you won't have to be present to enter? Just present to get your plug back?
