Rip Plugger's Plugs

[DarkSkies]

[DarkSkies]

last one. This one "waggles" like crazy, especially with the tail. The eyes in the head even have moving pupils, freaky!

Nitestrikes and the other guys who asked, I think he's selling these for the price range of $15-16 each. If you get a couple I think he pays for shipping. I think I sent him like $47 for these 3. Hope that helps.

[Rip-Plugger]

Howdy DS,

glad they got there.I hope they are to your liking.
I just wanna clarify some facts.

the prices I ask for are directly related to how much work I put into them.
it can vary up to $20.00 or down to $10.00.
I make each one without the idea of selling it.if it does not tickle my fancy,I will put it up for sale.
I also have several that can come up for sale at anytime,some used and some only tested and hung up.
so,if you see it in my catalog thread then it's for sale.

some lures may be up for sale and be posted and if I know someone that wants it,I'll post the fact that it's has been sold.

DarkSkies,I hope you catch a winner with them,let me know when you get something on them,post it here K?

cheers

I can't freakin believe I didn't see this post I knew you would have a catalog someday gotta say I was laughing my A$$ off when I saw the post made me feel good for a change LOL.Plugs & fishing rods your becoming a one stop tackle shop separate catalogs eh?

[DarkSkies]

Yeah surfstix, a lot of people might not know how famous R-P is getting. Ray at Sting Ray tackle came to him for help and input designing a rod for surfcasters. I think he named it the Rip-Plugger line or something like that. Maybe if he's not too shy he or someone else who knows a bit more about the rods can come post up in here or another thread about them.

I heard he's gonna start charging for autographs soon, but ya get one for free if ya buy a rod....

[Rip-Plugger]

howdy guys,

well,the rods in questio[H-H series]n are based on xtra heavy rods one would use for salmon but,with saltwater guides and real cork handles along with graphite reel seats.
theres is also a big spinning stick to sling bait with.

the prototype is a true beast of a rod.
it is able to sling 8 plus a chunk to england.
there will also be lighter action rods that will be great for doing albies or slinging storm shads,bombers and such.
I am sure those that buy one will be smiling when they use it.prices will also make you smile too.

the downside is that late this year is when all should be ready for the water.
for those that like avet/accurate style reels there is the stingray tackle "Tigre",a one piece aluminium reel,cnc machined and will drown a whale if ya hook it,
also with lever drag.
the aqua reels,built for the salt AND have a baitrunner system are a great reel to fish,they cast great and are not expensive,they also are made with stainless gears and full of the good stuff we want!

when I get more info,I shall post it.
autographs are now on sale for $5.00 each,,,group discounts are availible!

An icon in the surf community, a past history in the metal band Dark Angel, a current gig where he co-hosts a metal show every Sat night, now a line of HH surf rods in the pipeline..... pretty soon this guy's head will be so big he can't fit through the door!

Yes I can see it now, ripplugger's house on MTV's Cribs, and he will need an entourage when he travels around town. And we can say we knew of him before he became famous. You won't forget us when you make it in the big-time, will you ripplugger?

[Frankiesurf]

Dude! You were in Dark Angel? That's awesome!

I fished with the guitar player from Suffocation once. He is a diehard surfcaster when not on tour.

Hello DS,

actually that band was not Dark Angel,it was Evil Angel,there were several others including Cursed,Black Dragon,Demon stone,Rancid,Flesh & Fire and Deciever.
those were bands I was part of and there were several times I was called to fill in for a member of other bands that was ill or too dammed drunk to do the show.
these bands were either thrash,black thrash or dark metal which is now called blackmetal.

it was a glorious time that lasted 11 years or so.
the best time of my life!

now I am low profile and like remaining in stealth mode.

Some more of Rip Plugger's work:

"this odd piece has an unusual shape.
if you view it head on,it's about 2-1/4 inches wide on top and as you go
towards the belly,it's tapered and rounded along the belly ridge,kinda
like those old ashphalt curbs in a parking lot.the snake inspired me on
this one so,I made a baby one 5 inches long too.
both wag very nice.'
