Question Needlefish Question?

How would you rank the small Gibbs, Habs, and Super Strike needlefish regarding how fast they sink? When would you prefer to use one over the other?

Thanks

Gibbs - when I want to reel in super slow
Habs - when I want to cover the middle to top of water column, they sink but will come up when retrieved
Superstrike - mostly on beaches where they get down or tumble in the waves, work great with a decent retrieve with an occasional jerk.
