Gibbs darters without the stepped head.
Gibbs bottles with the old-style heads.
Sinking 3-1/2 oz Polarises (they "swam" better on a slow retrieve).
The 5-1/4 oz pencils were more of a niche item, for the Canal. I'd rather have them bring back the "Canal Special" now that the Hawg-man has passed on, if it was a choice of one or the other. The Canal Special was a 7" pencil popper that had a flat, planed bottom and a little extra weight at the rear for a better cast. They weighed 3-1/8 oz rather than the 2-3/4 oz standard 7" PP.
Since I live in Beachmaster territory, I don't miss the jointed Danny, jointed Pikie or even the Atom 40 that much.
