Coming to Boston this weekend and bringing my Dad (Bill) to Plugfest again this year. I know he has been working on a few plugs. He is really excited about the Plugfest Challenge and has made a few (one of which he may part with for the raffle). He was a Marine in VMF311 in WWII and as a metalsmith as he puts it "used to put the bottoms back on the Corsairs that did belly landings".

Here is a photo my niece sent me of one of his plugs (I believe that at least one of the lures has a bb in the shell casing to act as a rattle).

Hope this whet's everyone's whistle. We will see you Staurday 3/3.

Bill

I have one in the works for this.

Mike, is the military themed contest plugs a part of the usual contest?
I'm confused, which is not that hard to do

I thought you were running this part, forgive me

I think between myself, JohnR, Swimmer and you we can make this work.

I'll go read the thread again
