Plugfest booty haul

What a great day it was today. Thanks to everyone who traded with me. My kids loved all of them and I can't wait to fish them.
Thanks to JohnR for this great site, I hope the little striper helps in the raffle next week.
A picture of the results of so many trades today, who can name them all?

I can't name them all but I did pretty well myself.
[Thank you Numbskull, you are MOST generous ]

Looks like you have quite the start of a pretty good plugbags worth there.

I'm so sad .. I missed the event... looks like a good time was had by all, I had lots of plugs I had planned on swapping ( more like giving away, as I've done in the past) .... all the more for next year...

Anyone that has never been to this event has no Idea how much fun it realy is... it almost needs to be a two day event.. congrats to all the people that sucessfully HO'd plugs...

A good run is better than a bad stand!

This was my "booty Haul", I think I will be set for a while.

I only remember 1/2 of who the plugs are from, alot of them are not signed.

Thank you everyone, really need the name tags, was a bunch of people I wanted to meet, that I did not know their faces.

I Met "Mac" one of my plug building idols , Bill Couch,The Greek, Goforbroke44, gldnbear, angler229, fishon8, sjfish, FishNH, Oldman & these are just some of the people I met for the first time, sorry if I forgot some of you.

It was also great seeing all the regulars.

A big Thank You to everyone that made this possible

Glen
