MSBA Plug Project Debut!... PLEASE READ.

Thanks to the contributions and support of some great individuals,
I am going to debut the current entries for the Plug Project Collection at the MSBA show this weekend.

For those who have contributed to this collection who have not given me a brief bio about yourself, and how long you have been building your own, please try to PM me as soon as you can so I can add your information to the book that will accompany this display.

This project is still young, and I encourage anyone who is...
or has... built their own plugs to make their mark in this tradition by becoming a part of this travelling display.

This is a unique opportunity to feature the talents and innovation of plug makers at all skill levels, and I look forward to seeing your signature creations as a part of this growing collection.

Thanks again to those who have come on board with this so far.

It's not too late to get your work into the display debut for Saturday & Sunday.

For those attending the event who would like to add their work to the collection, feel free to bring your addition with you and I'll mount it into one of the cases there.

If you are interested in joining this collaborative project, please PM me to make arrangements to join the ranks of others who share in the satisfaction of building their own lures, and for those who are inspired by the innovative work of others, and for those who simply share in the love of the sport!

Thanks again!

Bliz

I can't wait to see it Bliz, you have worked hard on this project and with all of the generous donations from many talented plug builders, this should be alot of fun to see and enjoy.

For those of you who donated and cannot make the show, we will be sure to take photos to post here on the site so that you will feel like you are there and not missing out. We realize some of you donors are from out of state and we want you to share in this great unveiling.

Almost time to get our fish on!!!

Does anyone have the material to tie up a red white & blue bucktail as a tailhook?...

It would be a great touch for Theishingfreaks Plug!

Backbeach Jake,
There will always be room for you

I encourage all to become a part of this awesome undertaking!

That's part of the reason for this project...

I have had only 3 days to build the cases, and I just finished up for tomorrows event... I am going to be building more of them after this weekend!

The prototypes came out pretty good, and I have some ideas on improving designs as I go...

As for bringing your creation to this event, I hope that many will show up and do the same.

I'm glad you've decided to be included in this!

By the looks of the early foundations of this collection, you are going to be in good company!

Thanks for adding your "fingerprint" in becoming part of this growing collaboration.

I am taking the stewardship of this project very seriously since what I am putting together is representing the craftsmanship many talented and dedicated anglers out there like yourself...

And this is just getting started!...

I hope you find the debut of this collection to be enjoyable and inspiring!

See you tomorrow.

Bliz
