From Beekeeper to Bait Maker: The MX Plugs Story

On this episode of Fishing the DMV, I sit down with the owner of MX Plugs—a custom lure maker with an incredible backstory and a serious passion for innovation. It all started with a broken plug he found lakeside. No hooks, no hardware—just potential. After cutting it in half, reshaping it, adding rattles and new hardware, he crafted a plug that actually caught fish. That spark of creativity launched a journey that took him from offshore shark and tuna charters to the creeks and bays of Long Island, chasing striped bass. Over the years, he’s honed his craft designing lures for everything from tuna and dolphin to freshwater bass, eventually leading him to start his own company, MX Plugs. Tune in as we dive into the art, science, and inspiration behind his one-of-a-kind creations.Please support Fishing the DMV on Patreon!!! https://patreon.com/FishingtheDMVPodcast Fishing the DMV now has a website: https://www.fishingthedmv.com/  If you are interested in being on the show or a sponsorship opportunity, please reach out to me at [email protected]  MX Plugs website: https://www.mxplugs.com/ MX Plugs on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/MxPlugs/ Email him at: [email protected] Or give him a call at: 1 516-449-1077  Please checkout our Patreon Sponsors
