Linesides, the old Danny I'm speaking of is in the 3oz. size. The big difference is sometime ago Gibbs decided to change the lip design so it's similar in all the sizes. Basically, the lip is the same width from the spot where it leaves the body to the tip. The older ones had a lip where it was the same width as the body where it met the body, but it widened a little as it came to the end. Follow me? No, I wasn't referring to the TS swimmers. I know the TS swimmers. Their lip was similar to what I described as well.

I do have to agree with you Mike P, for Darters and Bottles, Gibbs is the only game in town. I'm sure someone will make some wooden Darters soon. The Bottles I doubt because I'm sure Gibbs owns that patent.

A thread like this would be a waste if all the manufacturers don't read these boards. I'm sure a couple do and only browse, which would be fine by me. As long as they took what is said here into consideration.
