Does anyone know if they're gonna sell the 12" unrigged? I won't pay the price for the rigged ones, but I wouldn't mind having a few of the 12 inchers to rig up myself.

I thought I saw them but still was in sticker shock so I didn't pay attention. I also figured that I would support my B&T.

I see Lunker City getting a lot of complaints on these from guys who haven’t fished enough to realize that they’ll probably only get one fish, maybe two, per rigged sluggo. Hell, I think the unrigged ones are overpriced (although a lot of that is probably due to the packaging, just give me ten packs in a plastic bag and pass along the savings).

^ that reminds me that I did see larger amounts in the 9" size. Looked to be about 10 in a bag.

8 per bag, MSRP of $12.49. I also read about these weighted hooks they were coming out with, thought they'd be great for rigging up 9" Sluggos, except they're $3.59 - $4.49 per two-pack depending on the size you want, too much, especially when I can get some Mustad O'Shaughneseys ,wrap them with dacron, and stick a few galvanized nails in the plastic for about half the cost of their special hooks.

Lunker City says they will be selling the 12's unrigged...
