well heres the deal.. I made enough for everyone plus one for me. I went out this afternoon for some stalking and saw some boils... I cast, the swap plug was wiggleing away like a champ on top when it was totally inhaled by a bass in the low 20 pound range.. Everything was fine until the plug foulhooked on its gill plate, then the leader snapped as the bass rolled on me. :smash: Lessons learned-
1. make more plugs than i think i need.
2. use 40# leader in the spring even though you think the fish will be small( i was using 15 # flouro)

So, after this loss, i dont have any left for me unless I keep NIB's plug....

Sorry :( but, i do strongly urge you guys fish these, or least take them for a test swim... they're pissa :hihi:

Christian 04-25-2005 06:13 PM

im finishing mine up fast as possible.

i should not have started trout fishing... theyll be done within a few days.

Backbeach Jake 04-25-2005 08:09 PM

So what's the count now? I think I sent 13. If that's 2 too many send one back to me and one to Bliz. I forgot to make one for myself. :crying:

BigFish 04-25-2005 09:27 PM

BigFish 04-27-2005 11:46 AM
