A staple in surfcasting tackle boxes for decades, the Stan Gibbs Danny Pro Series surface swimmer delivers classic wooden plug action tuned for big game fish. Designed specifically to imitate large baitfish like menhaden (bunker), herring, and mullet, this 6-inch, 2.25-ounce wooden swimmer rolls and wiggles right along the surface film to draw explosive strikes.
The Pro Series enhancement takes the classic Gibbs Danny design and upgrades it for maximum durability against heavy salt environments and aggressive fish. Featuring heavy-duty thru-wire construction, upgraded stainless steel hardware, and rugged treble hooks, it stands up to monster striped bass, bluefish, and trophy snook without bending or failing.

Performance & Presentation
-
Slow Surface Crawl: Retrieve at a slow, steady pace to keep the plug working the top layer. The wide metal lip catches water to produce a distinct rolling wobble and surface wake that predators target from below.
-
Tuning Flexibility: The stainless metal lip can be gently bent down to keep the lure swimming true on the surface, or slightly up to allow it to dip just under the surface layer in rougher surf or heavy currents.
-
Optimal Conditions: Excels around rocky points, ocean beaches, boulder fields, estuaries, and breachways, particularly during low-light conditions, night fishing, or when large bait is present.
