MAC's 300+

[Ake G]

As in 300 dollar plug!

This is obviously a beautifully crafted plug by a heck of a skilled artist.

Makes me wonder about the plug as "Art Object". I'm sure MAC's 300+ catches great as his plugs clearly have a well-earned good reputation as fish catchers.

I'm up here making now 3 different shapes. A spook, a swimmer and a needlefish. Just 3 shapes that cover all my needs.I paint them in 2 colors-basically White and Black.Not 'cause I can't handle an airbrush(I can) but these two colors are all anybody needs to catch fish IMO.I'm pretty utilitarian in the way I choose to use my plug-makin' time.(which is limited)

Good thing there's builders like MAC out there....

I'm curious....What's your motivation as a plug builder?

How many of you make plugs for utility, or as an expression of your creative skills or for sale? Other reasons?Or a combination?
