Perhaps the most effective darter ever made was the Gibbs three treble model built with screw-eyes. Many of the other darters were designed off of this Gibbs model. It was always a favorite of mine until Gibbs went to two trebles - just not the same plug. The plastic Musso comes closest to the original action of that classic Gibbs design. Has anyone knocked off the original three hook design complete with heavy duty screw eyes? I know you guys have the talent to replicate this deadly darter.
