in my limited experience with these plug ,yes
I think most builders (no offense, but this is my opinion) are much more interested in creating buzz about their plugs then they are about their stuff actually catching fish.
How otherwise would you explain the fact that most jointed metal lip swimmer vibrate like a buzzsaw.Ever see a struggling fish move that fast and that intense?Like I said ,I am no fan unless the plug is about ten inch or bigger and slender where is actually appear like an eel in the water with a slow snake like motion.The other reason for my opinion is that I have never,ever ,talked to a guy who was in love with short ,jointed plugs because they produced fish.Now ,I am not saying that there are no fans ,just that I never talked to one.
Same on Jointed needle and especially the jointed darter.
Please ,somebody make a jointed popper....I need a surface plug that will cast 20 yards
