i'm not a beleiver in jointed needles at all. i think at their best, they'll equal a non-jointed equivalent when it comes to catching fish, and in more cases will not preform as well due to limited casting properties. sure, they'll be a very significant catch here and there, but who's to say that that fish wouldn't have hit a straight needle at the same time.
they're a great idea for plugs builders though, take a design you already have, add a cut and watch people go crazy over them. jointeds are very "in" right now and it seams that alot of people just want to be in on the fad.
