Superstrike plugs are among my favorites. Without question, they are the best "big" plastic plug out there. I like everything they make except the biggest popper, the 3 oz "Littleneck" Polaris-style. Their bottle plugs and darters are on a par with Gibbs, and because they're molded plastic, you get better consistency. Every Superstrike darter and bottle swims the same way, but not every Gibbs swims similarly, and some Gibbs bottles don't swim at all.

Their 2-3/8 oz Littleneck popper is a dynamite plug, the best generally-available medium popper on the market. It sinks, but is weighted so that it's very easy to keep on the surface at a slow retieve, and it will even swim when you really crawl it. They make great needlefish, both standard and stubbies (they call their stubbies the Bullet).

One thing about their poppers--they're now selling floating models that don't cast or work as well as the weighted ones. You can tell the difference from the eyes. Sinking models have black eyes, the floaters have green.
