Perhaps anybody can enter, they give all the plugs to me, I fish them for a season, and I let everybody know who the fish picked as a winner the following year?

It's a tough job, but somebody has to do it.

Brass ring? I thought we were playing for twinkies.

George, from your pics, you could make anyone's plug a star.

He that would make his own liberty secure, must guard even his enemy from oppression; for if he violates this duty, he establishes a precedent that will reach to himself.

I would have gotten back sooner on this post, but I keep going by NEBE's Car Wash and come unglued, and lose myself.

I appreciate all the response to this post. Larry sent you a PM.

I think it was smart of me asking before I just showed up with a plug and plopped it on the table.

Tagger thanks for the parts offer, but I have most of the stuff. Many different lips, weights, and all the other stuff. Appreciate the kind offer.

Sorry if any feathers were ruffled by my vague comment.

I was talking about a bondo and repaint I did on a big Lupo danny that won Best Representation of a Classic. Thus my blushing smiley about being embarassed for it.

My point was that my pretty paint job should not have beaten out guys who fabricated representations of classic plugs from start to finish.
