Hab's plugs return

With the help of two of his father’s friends, John Haberek, Jr. is making Hab’s Custom Plugs again. John’s father, “Hab” Haberek, died last autumn.

Joe Martins, of Point Jude Lures, and Mike “Tattoo” Dauphin, the maker of Tattoo’s Tackle lures have been helping Hab, Jr. learn the plug-building craft, and the results are impressive.

Yesterday, Joe showed me two pencil poppers bearing Hab, Jr.’s signature. They’re beautiful.

They will be on sale at the New England Saltwater Fishing Show, April 4-6 in Providence.
