Has any one used galvanized wire for ther plugs. I picked up some 18 guage at lowes today it was only a copple of dollars for 110' of it. or should i just stick with the stainless.

If you took the time to turn and finish a plug why in the world would you use galv. wire? Go for the best and not have to worry about when the gal. will rust out from wear.:rolleyes:

Use it to start, next year you'll know why.:D
You can always rewire the keepahs.
I use tie wire for testing, a roll is real cheap and its handy for hanging sealed or painted bodies, etc. etc
I don't have to worry about catching fish in the winter cause I test in a pool.:cool:
