Perhaps, but the better I've gotten with darters the more I appreciate darters that run shallow................which is something Stan Gibbs seems to have figured out decades ago, but the rest of us have been too foolish to see.

I am certain that Stan Gibbs was a better plug fisherman than Mr Knie (many times better, I'd bet), and unquestionably he was also a better plug designer. The three Tactical angler plugs shown look like coarse copies of Gibb's darter, pencil popper, and polaris. Since the originals were perfected by a better fisherman and better plug builder I strongly suspect the original versions are better plugs for most situations. Time will tell. Just trying to keep things in perspective.
