Simple is cool - I'm up fer it

THe other method get antsy like a true yankee swap...(#3 guy on list cringing at each pick after seeing the most beautiful plug in the pile....)

There is a down side - I got into one once that I actually started. A few high-end builders jumped up and shortly after that so did a few fledgling builders - Most of the new guys put their best stuff (some very rudimentary but very respectable plugs) although the work wasn't refined the plugs were the pride of some really great guys - but some guys who I thought knew better threw in some pretty crappy efforts - I have one that I keep on my wall of shame - made by one of the most respected builders today - I even asked him what he was thinking and he continued to otry to pass it off as top stuff -

In short, I ended up with 15 plugs, mostly conversation pieces or boofinch fodder....
