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.  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  |

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.  |
