A wooden A40 type. I cast it into a rip, and on the retrieve , I love the way that type of plug swims, you can feel it. I've got plenty of big bass this year on that type of plug.

Be encouraging, not discouraging

Swimmers

Since everyone's posting multiple plugs I figured I'd share my favorites. Here's my best swimmers and why I like them.

The tattoo diver and yellow r.m. smith danny were responsible for one of my best memories of 2006. I waded out (more aggressively than usual) onto what is now my favorite rock on BI and got into a blitz of keepers this past sept. I landed countless fish around keeper size on these plugs for about an hour at dusk until the tide pushed me off the rock. Nothing huge but it was alot of fun.

The wonderbread eelpunt swimmer has been good to me when there is a good chop on the water. I always seem to hook up on this plug when it digs in just under the crest of a wave.

The jointed R.M. Smith swimmer is just a fish catcher. Seems to always get me a fish when nothing else willl and the blurple 2 oz. swimmer was good to me everytime there were fish around this spring. This plug has changed my opinion of metal lips at night and it's always in my bag on a dark evening.

The yellow/red head Mac Pikie has also been a good choice for me the past two summers. It's accounted for more than a few 20#ers on those single fish summer nights.

Cool pic I came across of some RM Smith plugs-



Never fished his metal lips, do they swim as good as they look?

Standing on the water, casting your bread
While the eyes of the idol with the iron head are glowing
Distant ships sailing into the mist
You were born with a snake in both of your fists while a hurricane was blowing

plug bug again ...

Ugghhh ... you guys are killing me, as I made the decision a few weeks ago not to add many plugs to my collection this winter ... as I cannot use all the ones that I have now ... but my philosophy just went out the window now that I have seen this thread ... started thinking about plugs that are not in my collection, or a few that need to be added to and now I have the plug bug again ... my decision for a little constraint has gone bye bye ...
