If you sell plugs you should be a sponsor and show your stuff in the sponsors forum. It's advertising and good business for you and the site. Now if you are a sponsor but want to share a building technique or new product for building then by all means it can go in the plug building forum.

I hate the idea of swaps, period. Especially mega swaps, take to much away from the site.

Numby, I am two years up on you at Plugfest and I am designing this coming years entry already, your toast.

Why even try.........

Eddy, do you crimp your barbs? Can't understand not doing that, at least you would just have two little holes .

I crimp barbs on everything very rarely loose a fish.

Most my plugs I crimp the barbs .. Jigman spook is up to 220 fish largest 27 lbs. on crimped barbs .. Eelskin plug I considered it ,, then figured the fish I'm targeting with that plug I don't want to drop .. Even after my piercing ,, i'm still undecided .

You going to take that George. I hope not for the sake of all us short guys. The bigger they are the harder they fall.
