Thanks for the info on the opoxy Rob,I'll definetly look for it and give it a try.

As far as the durability of these big lures,your right nothing is indestructable and when you use them and occasionally mis-use them it's to be expected that they will start to show the wear and tear.I've also bounced my slammer off a few rocks and have'nt had a problem,not even a slight crack.Depends on where it makes contact on the bait I think.Overall the Ms Slammer is by far the best put together and quality big bait plug to own right now,in no way am I trying to knock it's durability.Maybe Mike should look into Kryptonite though ;-)

Talking about all this sure makes me want to go fish though...work sucks!!
