Hi , Sonny
Thanks for your kind words . I can definately assure you , that the "Heiddy" is a "killer lure" .
I advise you , not to embed the weight straightaway after the design sketch into the lure , I always clearcoat my jerkbaits with ordinary clear lacquer , assemble all hardware and fix a piece of wire to the linetie(resembling the wire leader) and now first determine about the weight needed to achieve desired sink rate in a water bucket .
Then I'd fix that weight with plastic tape onto the indicated location at lureblank and check for accurate horizontal sink position . I move the weight , until satisfied .
Due to different woods , that may be used , that location at the body can vary , hence my advice .
Did not do this with my first ones , and I was dissappointed about them not sinking quite level !
Good success with anything , that you're up to , diemai
