Lucky 13

Hi guys, I am not a builder just a user of your customs. I am curious if anyone has made a sinking swimmer like the freshwater lucky 13's? I would think the erratic action that they have would be similar to a darter in current. Maybe these have been made in yrs past, just curious.

Numbskull, do you know what came first? The Heddon Lucky has a similar face to a bottle darter.

In this pic you can see how they changed the design.

This is an old clip, but I think they make them different now. Not sure how big this pic will come out.
