diemai 234 Posted July 24, 2012 Report Share Have you already swum it , Vic ? I'm concerned , that it might get to spin , unless heavily counter-balanced with belly ballast . Good Luck , ...Dieter Quote Link to comment
littleriver 81 Posted July 24, 2012 Report Share Your good. I have taken it for a swim and it is heavily counter balanced. Prettiest wake you ever did see. Happy fishing....................Vic Quote Link to comment
Juice780 10 Posted July 25, 2012 Report Share Nice I've thought about making some like that. Looks similar to the buckeye wake bait. How much weight did you have to put in the bait to make it run properly Quote Link to comment
littleriver 81 Posted July 25, 2012 Report Share Thank you Juice. I have had this carving on my bench for a while and finally decided to take it up. I weighed what I put in her for you but do not really trust my scale. It really is not made for precise small measurements. It gave me a number of eight grams. The lead I used for this build was two "water gremlin" egg sinkers #10 and one round split shot #7. She will not run right with this alone. Only after adding the set of three hooks and split rings did she perform properly. Good luck with your build..................Vic Quote Link to comment
