More of a poll really...

When you say you throw "8s" are you referring to double showgirls or jr. cowgirls (size wise)?

Personally, I assume people are talking about jr. cowgirls when they say 8s. BUT I would love it if the musky fishing world would start calling colorado 8s = 8s and magnum 8s = 9s.

Technically speaking both are size 8 blades (colorado 8s vs. magnum 8s) so it causes confusion.  Like when someone says a certain reel can handle anything up to 8s.  The reason I ask is because when I hear a report from someone that 8s are hot and outproducing 10s I can't help but wonder if they are referring the showgirls or jr. cowgirls, it really all comes down to the individual person and no one is wrong.

A couple of people are calling the #9 blade a magnum 8 which leads to confusion.  Lakeland calls them all magnum Indiana blades, 8,9,10.

I refer to the cowgirl JR's as double 9s, and the regular cowgirl ans double 10s.
