Buy homemade plugs

The mass produced lures I make are all home made. Yep RI Poppers are all made right at our house by my family

before I tried my hands at building my own,I bought several bulk buys of capt bills atoms and pro series swimmers.
I did not expect any to be bad and none of them were.
my partner also did the same and he did have one shed it's paint after several chopper attacks but that was it.
I refinished it for him and it's been as solid as a rock.

so,for me I must say that they are good.
I also must say that if there is anyone on this site that has bad words to say about them,I'll take them all off your hands!!
just pm me and I'll send you my mail info!

ya know,I kinda believe that some guys get brainwashed into thinking that such plugs are junk and then say they are even though they have had no problems at all with them.
most guys say such all over the web and the fact is that it's just not so.all of mine[28 pieces] have performed well,some did need to be tuned but they have not lost paint or cracked or anythng else.

I honestly beleve that it's jst bad words from some that affect the ideas of others.
shoot,I have some tops shelf plugs[4 total] that arent cheap and them bastges cracked from stem to stern!,,I won't mention any names but I simply retopcoated them and kept right on fishing,they still work and I am still happy with them,,,will I buy any more of them??,,,nope,,will I make any more of my own??,,damn skippy!

Very well said ripplugger, you definitely have a lot of wisdom.

That's because some people in this world can't think for themselves, they want to be spoon fed all their knowledge from the internet. Whatever happened to good old fashioned hard work? I posted a thread here about learning to make plugs. A lot of guys chimed in to help me. True, I find it hard to finish projects because of all the things going on with the family. But even getting started made me realize how hard people work to make something. It's a tremendous task to create something and have it come out right. I know like everything else that you can't learn these things overnight. Try to tell that to some of the internet critics who complain about every little feature that isn't perfectly to their liking.



"My rod broke, did anyone know where to get a free one? (were you using it as a wading staff?)

Oh compare and contrast the durability of xxxx plugs against yyyy plugs for me, I'm too lazy to go out and do it myself.

BTW, I'm going out fishing today, can anyone hold my rod for me and bait my pole, I'm too busy texting to fish. "
