Look at builders such as Habs and Tattoo. Both have great fish catching plugs that last, and no belly grommets.

I like using them! I like a nice finished look to my plugs! I guess you either like them or you don't! Some guys think the swivel bangs against the grommets and adds a little "tick, tick" to the sound of the plug?? I guess there might be something to that! I just enjoy using them!

Almost time to get our fish on!!!

You spend $2000.00 building a plug whats another 2 cents .
