Fish45 Posted June 2, 2017 Report Share Posted June 2, 2017 I'm having trouble figuring out whether this is a og or new punker. I know the new style has a big dolphin like lip, but this has a lip too sort of, not as big as the others I've seen tho! Please drop some knowledge below thanks!

mjw2121 Posted June 2, 2017 Report Share Posted June 2, 2017 It's new. Tony91723, C_R_TX and Fish45 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fish45 Posted June 2, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2017 Thanks for the quick response mason, but I thought this version was the new style? Bigger lip/ line tie more towards the forward tip of the bait? Are there multiple new styles? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
basskickinrednick Posted June 2, 2017 Report Share Posted June 2, 2017 (edited) Bottom is og I think lol Edited June 2, 2017 by basskickinredneck Fish45 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
surfk9 Posted June 2, 2017 Report Share Posted June 2, 2017 Bottom is definitely OG....this one is a "second" i purchased (along with several others) from Jeremy in 2008...believe my son & I picked up 4 or 5 of these with minor paint imperfections...all time favorite top water "go to" bait. basskickinrednick and Fish45 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

biggfeast Posted June 2, 2017 Report Share Posted June 2, 2017 Haven't fished a punker in years, but I believe what you have there is an og jcolo4sho, gcopple and Fish45 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
surfk9 Posted June 3, 2017 Report Share Posted June 3, 2017 They were advertised as having minor flaws in the paint ... Some had small " runs" others had "smudges" nothing to effect the performance mainly asthetic .. Didn't really care price was reduced on them ... can't remember exactly the price except that it was a bargain comparitively speaking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilcatfish Posted June 3, 2017 Report Share Posted June 3, 2017 I believe that is a newer production bait which was sold in January, I almost bought one. Cool paint job hydrocephalic and Fish45 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hydrocephalic Posted June 3, 2017 Report Share Posted June 3, 2017 This is what an OG punker head looks like. It lacks a lot of the extra carvings in the gill plate that yours does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kc123 Posted June 4, 2017 Report Share Posted June 4, 2017 Do you guys know if any of the OGs lacked the black dog "paw" on the top of the lure? I recently acquired a 6" punker (or what appeared to be a punker) in rainbow trout and noticed that it was missing the paw. It resembles the OG shown above as far as the nose shape looks. Just curious if it could be legit or not. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
surfk9 Posted June 4, 2017 Report Share Posted June 4, 2017 All mine have them ...... The "Paw" OG is different from some that I've seen recently with it located on the gill area Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Post a pic of yours and we can tell you whether its a new or old production Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kc123 Posted June 12, 2017 Report Share Posted June 12, 2017 Sorry for the delay...Here's what I have. Notice that the "paw" is missing on the top of the lure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
surfk9 Posted June 12, 2017 Report Share Posted June 12, 2017 Not certain...but it could be a repaint???? I painted some years ago before they became "endangered species" that i simply painted over the paw...not thinking about potential value years later...That's the way it is...
