I like the thin ones best. Super strike shape. May just be a function of where I fish, but I'll take a thin profile over wide almost all the time with any style plug. Heard great things about the old Gibbs pictured but never been able to find one to try.

Ready for a test. The originals weighed between 1.8 oz. and 2.1 oz. This one came in at 1.9oz.
Looks like Glen (GooGooMan) has come up with a nice narrow Darter!!
