I agree with some of Flaps points and disagree with one in particular. For me it does take away from my new idea turning. I only have limited time to turn and and moass takes up all of it. It also makes me rush, and to be hones I am not happy with the way my swap plugs turned out. I have owed sporty guy plugs for two years and have just started to make a new batch. I want to get some plugs to karl for the sale and have ideas for an eel plug and others that I want to get to, but now only have a limited time to finish. In the spring I would rather fish than turn.

That being said, it is amazing to open the box and see the great plugs and amazing talent that is out there. I always enjoy catching a fish on a swap plug. So is it worth it, for me 50/50. Plugs vs the frustration of not making what I want/need.

I do not feel it is plug greed at all. John will benefit so we will benefit and the members will get to see 24 plugs all at once.

That is all , carry on.

It has been quiet in here this winter, and I think some of that was due to the swap.

If I was in it, I would not have been able to get to half of the stuff I did this winter. I added up all the plugs I made and it's only around 75-80 plugs, 1/2 of which will end up with my parter and my dad..
