I have built a ton of plugs over the past year. I never think they are perfect. I made a bunch recently to benefit a friend of mine in need and wound up by sending an extra to two of the guys because I wasn't happy with the epoxy on the plug. They were thrilled with the plug even though I felt it should have been better.

I will make 5 bodies identical and make each slightly different (weighting, lip position, lip style, hook placement, hook size and record which one is which by a number) I swim em and then decide which one I want to finalize on. After you do a few plugs you have an idea of how it will work to an extent based on different plugs you have built in the past that worked a certain way. It is all fun and games to me.

Once I get one perfect I will let you know. Until then I will keep trying.
