I only have 3 leftys a yellow one ,, a gold one that lefty fishes himself often and a spoonbill I'm told is one of twelve he made .. I think the plug is what it is ,,light tackle ,, schooly plug .don't make it a bad plug .. I like the whole Lefty story . Just a guy that liked to fish .. had a wife and kids and couldn't afford $2 for a plug . I read the thought behind the plug was it would be totally sealed and fish the same thru-out the season. The hooks are the 4x strong eagle claw so when the sweep back and forth they don't tear up themselves..The lips are molded into the plug as clean as a whistle .I like the fact Lefty is a fisherman first . He only makes so many plugs , when the fish are back he stops building until they leave .He could sell as many as he could build . Look at all the Lefty knockoffs and wannabees.I 've swam them off season and they swim very well . Could I fish them at my honey hole .. NO I can't fish a mustad 3x strong anymore .. there to soft, straightening out..opened a split ring . switched to triples ..no I wouldn't think my little lefty would stand up to this..Nice little plug ,, wish I had more,, Lefty sounds like a good guy ..
