The Great Plug-Off 2006

The Great Plug-Off 2006 Feb, 11th

This year, like last year we will be holding a home built plug contest at PlugFest. Starting today and ending the day of PlugFest, entrants will be stowed away in their man caves hoping to hatch a creation that will take 1st prize. Entries will be brought to plugfest in an unmarked brown paper bag, an unbiased, un-bribed, bipartisan member of our prestigious group here at Striped-Bass.com will be asked to display the plugs in a manner which is fair and just. He will also be asked not to aid in the matching of creation to creator. Voting will be cast on a secret ballot, judged by all of your peers as each attendee will cast a scrutinizing eye on the cache of seafaring wood. Votes will be tallied and 3 top finishers will be selected and awarded. Please find the rules of The Great Plug-Off 2006 below.

1. Each plug will be made out of the wood of your choice, using the method of your choice.
2. Each entry will be made from start to finish by one builder only.
3. All plugs entered will be entered as if ready to fish, hooks and other hardware are required.
4. Voting will begin at 12:00 pm and continue until 1 hour before the close of the event.
5. Each voter will be allowed 2 votes, one for 1st place and one for 2nd.
6. There will be 3 prizes (yet to be determined). We’re going to try and at least match the prizes from last years PlugFest, prize quality is sure to be high.

Don’t hold back fellow builders this event is sure to produce some of the most amazing wood we’ve seen yet. And best of all, if you win, it will justify your obsession with bringing blocks of wood to life. As of this moment, The Great Plug-Off 2006 has begun!
