After all the great pluggage I saw yesterday, I don't think the fish stand a chance

Thanks for all the help everyone, I can't name all the names but you know who you are

Much bigger place with room to not be crowded
food was great and the company better.
Thanks John for the place to talk about and learn about building plugs.

I took a lot of pictures so I'll use up John's bandwidth for a while since he forgot his camera.

sorry about the out of focus PM classic plug

the last one is some of the professors' fancy aluminum jigs and tools and stash

middle is Pauls' other classic with threaded thru wire and nut on the end, fancy workmanship!

Thank you everyone!
and thanks Dan for bringing that grinder setup, my gouges are sharper now and have the correct angle, I'll be busy using them soon.
thanks again for the plugs I got, I will fish them hard.
I did miss seeing a few people, sorry they could not come - Bigfish, capesams,Throwing Timber, Stripercrazy, TDF. And it just is not the same without Flaptail Steve Shiraka
It was great seeing the rest of you and to see some first timers also.


By the way, Best of show again was Rowhunter with that beautiful big mouth popper painted in striper What a piece of work that is! Congrats Rowhunter!

I am not sure but we may have screwed up and forgot an award, I think I messed John up when I broke a frame glass and we forgot the classic plug winner. ooops

Next year we'll have to plan this stuff out better and talk more about it online ahead of time. It went well, good organized chaos.

Great time as per usual... good to see old faces and a few new ones...
I saw some great plugs from new faces as well.. I cant wait until next year...

I hope the few that got to see my e-tex "how to" got something out of it... I know I answerd a gazillion questions on the subject...

I'm off to re-assemble my shop!

A good run is better than a bad stand!

Eddie,

It was great to see your works and shake a few hands, wish that I could have stayed longer But had a to-do list.

A big, huge thankyou to Slip and JohnR. Without them I truly believe this hobby would have gone nowhere.
