Hard to say. I have the exact one as a wall hanger, 2oz. GTS2 which was purchased in the seventies. I've taken the GTS3 & GTS2's and made templates and recreated the plug. The lips have to be customized to match O.E. Usually a-40 & A-jr lips are the ones I redo.

Not to change the subject but your flo yel/wht Danny I traded for @ Plugfest swims terrific. Holds in a nice chop also.

It does weight 2oz. and he told me it was his uncles from a long time ago. I'll definitely be hanging it.

As far as the danny goes thanks. I have to thank professorM he hooked me up with a master.

Some finished up in the last week or two. New weighting on the BlueStreak/A40, ones I made last year had a little too much roll. Darter is a kit although I did a Frech darter this week and needs to be tested, looks good but we shall see if it swims. Big pikie's on the list for this week.
