where i fish, the slug-go is really the only artificial that I am confident would entice a slob if i didn't have eels.

Cheferson was rigging them and selling in the Classifieds here at a very fair price.

After a bluefish chops through the three pack of 12", you can take whats left and with some glue make a 9".

That seems much more reasonable - hope you do well.

I will have them availsble at our sale at the prices quoted.

seems this stirred up a few people I was asked to pull the link and up the price from more than one source.

Not me. The whole rigged Sluggo craze is sooo 2004....

Just another expensive fad I guessed I missed! Oh, well!


When they come out with bulk- bags of unrigged 12" Sluggos at a near- reasonable price... & keep their stinkin' funny- butt bent- shank hooks & packaging to themselves!...


Maybe then I'll start seriously experimenting with & rigging them... & throwing them!... in place of my pet (Bluefish- proof) Woods! (& S.S. plastic! )
