The original small one has an on center line tie, the medium and large have it below center, but it often needs to be bent up quite a bit. The plugs are belly weighted. They tend to roll and plow a bit. They cast better than a metal lip, but nothing like the tail weighted bottle/popper.
They don't fish as well as a metal lip in my experience, and aren't great in rough water (which sort of defeats their purpose).
I spoke to Musso at a SWLCC show about the plug. He indicated that he never "perfected" it in his mind, so the design may have more to offer.
