\Deep-diving plugs from shore ?

[fcap60]

Great responses and thank you.

Pete G. - i have a bunch of the OLDER gibbs bottles, mostly 2oz size and they only get down a little bit, but not to the bottom. How are you dragging bottom with them - have you modified the plug or are you using SS bottles - just curious ?

I like the SS bottle and I do put heavier hooks on them along with using them in a fairly shallow area. Even so they don't dive that deep. 4 to 8 feet maybe? Mostly I just tug it along till I feel it graze the bottom then I just let it float up, then repeat. Much like a crankbait in freshwater, which is what I grew up doing since I lived on a great bass pond.

You want to part with any of those older Gibbs? They're a classic example of "they don't make 'em like they used to".
