Probably, but I have not tried it yet (I was set up to do so this winter but never got to it).
I have not fished that style very much, but Musso (in the SJ article) mentions that he chose a similar style for his plastic darter because guys were doing better with the narrow gibbs as opposed to his wider darter at the time he geared up for a mold. This likely correlated with the big sandeel years. My experience has been that the wider darters fished better for me than the narrow Gibbs or Superstrike so that's what I stuck with......but likely I'm missing out on something good since both Gibbs and Musso came to prefer that style.
