Two. Both ancient Gibbs plugs; a black needlefish and a 3 OZ yellow darter. Lost them both the same way; while putting them back in my bag I got pasted by a wave and they were gone...

5; 2 hab's needles to the bottom, A salty needle to an operator error (forgot to take the line off the roller) an Eastend Lu bottle darter and my favorite......a large blue Tagger needle That one really suked as it was 1 of only 2 lures producing that night. A blurple bomber and THE NEEEEDLE. Once that neeeedle was gone the fish wouldn't touch anything

On the bright side; I didn't lose a plug to a seal. Didn't get out on the Race either even though I had a sticker.


Now if we talk jigs................. probably 30 to 40. Left 8 on the bottom one night. Packed it in after that.

Lost many jigs and a few tins to the gods that live on the bottom of the canal. One wood pink danny that broke my heart..............in the canal.

Don't have an exact count but I would say betwenn 32 and 36. Most were lost to blues, had several nights where I was bitten off 7-9 times that night. Aside from the lost plugs I was more pissed about the amount of braided line lost. Many times on fairly long drifts where the line was bitten fairly far from the plug to due hooking up on something decent only to have tight line go through a school of the yellow eyed demons. You know what happened next.
