Unhappy Plug Builders Got Wood Forum

I've been away from this site for a few years. Whatever happened to all the plug builders that populated this site. I know big plug fishing has declined recently, but canal fishing and poppers, darters, etc are still going on.

There, but like the status of the bass and the activity of the site, it is in decline

Good choice! VMC is all I use for hooks. Siwash is the best tail hook for all my plugs. Making plugs is like eating peanuts. Once I started, I could not stop. I did however, turn a deep diver into a bottle opener as gifts. I even sold a few. The opener can be bought from Etsy.com
