just wondering how many of you make out with these plugs. I have a bunch of the older, gibbs bottles most are the medium size and some are the 1oz size (do they still make those ?) I usually put a siwash with bucktail on the tail end and upgrade the belly hook with a VMC. On the large 3oz, I remove the middle altogether and upgrade the front hook only.

I did fairly well in the rips of Martha's vineyard last year with the 2oz, hardly reeling at all-just let the plug "thump" in the current.

Any luck with these plugs ?
