A point of information. If you check the original, I think you'll see that the lip slot is above midline to bring the line tie higher.....at least on the large Pine version (and both of the smaller swimmers). I have not seen an actual original large Surface Swimmer....as opposed to the more common Pine Swimmer which is a subsurface plug......do you have one by chance? The bassdozer article implies it had a smaller lip than the Pine , which uses a Pikie 3 Lip (exact).
