The Gibbs did not offset the rear swivel though, I wonder if the action would be as radical.

Maybe they have a patent on that offset rear swivel. Gibbs will rely solely on the fins for that action.

DREAMWEAVER SPIN DOCTOR 8"
Since its introduction in 2003, The Spindoctor has been at the top of the food chain when it comes to trolling flashers. With its one of a kind rotating action, the Spin Doctor has become the go to attractor for successful tournament fishermen and charter captains throughout the world...

Thanks. The perfectionist in me wonders why Dream Weaver doesn’t put a metal insert inside the connector hole where the snaps connect to. If you notice all of the salt water flashers, they have the metal insert on both ends. What if a 40 pound tyee hooked onto a Dream Weaver flasher/lure. Do you think that hole without an insert will last?Dreamweaver

OK I tried taking some pics of the 'attachment holes without grommets' but no results worth the looking.
Anyway I have three 12" models all have caught all kinds of fish and none shows any significant wear you really have to squint to see anything different between the used and unused ones -and once I put a snap on I leave it/couldn't care less what direction the thing turns in.
As to the mythical 40# fish it'll be fought with the similar drag to a 14# unit.
