I saw this plug assortment last night and I was quite impressed - really impressed (and that jointed should be auctioned and not stolen for the handful of bucks )...

Kudos to Karl & Don for their efforts in arranging this, kudos to all that donated , Kudos to MBBA for taking a lead in this project

Here are a couple of shots of the plugs for access - Thanks for the kudos John, much appreciated.
The plugs are from a group of excellent plugbuilders ( Digger - Slipknot-bassmaster-lifishvt-Strike King-Rockfish9-vinyardblues-JohnR-KarlL-gonefishin) from this site and Karl and I would like to extend a hearty thanks to all.
The plugs will be offered for a donation at the MBBA beach cleanups and also at their Spring Meet May 18-19-20 at Scussett. Anyone can drop in and join in. Check the MBBA web site for the dates of the beach cleanups.
If there are any other plugbuilders out there that have any spares or time to make a plug or two for the cause (plugs for access legal fund) contact either Karl L or gonefishin.

Thumbs up Thank You All

From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank all of you that donated to this.

As some of you know, I have been under the weather, for the last couple of months, (Fine Now), and I would really like to give Great Big Thanks to Don "gonefishing" Shaw for taking the ball and running with it on this project

Donations were successful at the cleanups, and the Spring Meet due to Don's efforts, and the better part of a thousand dollars has been raised for the legal fund, Thanks to you All!
Still some left, but they will be used to raise funds for the legal fund, at the clubs Fall Banquet.

Thanks Slip and John, for making this a sticky as well..

Prolly no need to keep it as a sticky.. Thanks Again all of you!

Thanks Karl and thanks to the MBBA
I should have done more

I'll send them the membership fee anyway

I'm glad you are feeling better, but take it easy
have the boy do all the chores at home

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.
