I fish pretty clear water and it's rarely fished by others. Should I get the wood one? Or the injected rattling one? Or does it even matter that much?

I like the wooden one much more.  It is heavier but I like the way it behaves in the water.  Problem is that the paint on the wooden ones I have sucks and chips very easy.  I don't mind that the pattern is messed up, it is just that the wood will start to absorb water through the chips.  Most people I know will add coats of epoxy to help the durability.

X2 I didn't like my injected punker as well as the wood ones but the paint is going to come off the wood one mas soon as you throw it in most cases. I make sure the wood ones keep some epoxy on them. I actually like a modified big magnum spook more then the punker. I move the hooks and line tie around to make it glide more like the punker and it lasts much longer.
