I designed this two prototype lures having in mind , how to shape a crankbait , that would cast further than comparable "usual" designs .
To my surprise I have found during first bath tub tests of the blanks , that the best location for the balance weights is in the rear , at about the transition to the pointed tail's taper .
This fact off course also improves the casting distance .
Yesterday I have field-tested these for the first time , and they do look promising in terms of good casting:yes: .
The smaller lure has a tight wiggle at about 2 to 3 feet , the larger one goes maybe down to 10 to 15 feet (estimated , the pond I tested in is quite shallow) and has a very strong head ,- and tailshaking wobble 
.
Hopefully I'd finally be able to test them on fish coming weekend .
