when gibbs had the work shop in sagamore me and flaptail would stop and talk to jonh +stan all the time when they chiped or nicked a p-p it would be put aside .later he would take and belt sand the nick down flat that way he still could still sell the plug at the shop for a special reduced price most of the time it was 4 bucks or less .the weight of the was greater ,so better castin.because of the flat bottom the plug could displace more surface area making it more versital in fast and slow moving water.many a big bass was taken on those plugs i don;tleave home without one love stiffi
