I've looked all thru the plug archives and thru my memory and never have seen a plug with a flat oval cross section. It seems to me that you could make a "flat Danny" and eliminate roll. You would need to turn it from three points on the head end and then sand it to make the oval. A topwater Danny is only seen from the bottom and the profile should'nt matter. Sort of like the theory behind a flatwing fly.
Any one seen one or made one?
