Capt Ron Murphy of Osterville MA, who runs the charter boat "Stray Cat" out of Hyannis was lucky enough to know Capt Sabatowski of the famous "June Bug" on which Carlie Cinto caught hyis 73 pound bass. Capt Murphy was presented with a cache of Capt Sabatowski's plugs when he passed away by his widow.
They are all, except for a Gibbs GTS, Goo-Goo Eye plugs. All had been modified in some way. A number were grooved for an eelskin and most were drilled through and re-wired rather than the screw eyes. The predominant colors are blue and all black. I have never seen an all black Goo Goo other than these. All are the largest size.
Interesting stuff to look at and the re-rigging says it all on how he knew waht worked and why and that he was targeting big fish. All were trolled on wire.
Just thought this would interest you.
