Flaswimbaiter Posted July 17, 2022 Report Share Posted July 17, 2022 I made a frog rat bait, everything is strait and symmetrical, the lip it not canted and the bait runs as it should, I can even retrieve at a moderate pace without blowout, but it tracks to the right, not just a little, but at a noticeable angle. What would cause this to happen? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azsouth Posted July 17, 2022 Report Share Posted July 17, 2022 Weight placement is my bet, I am guessing the bait it is wood, that would leave me to believe that you don't have enough weight or not perfectly inline. Guessing what's wrong without seeing it is quite difficult. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hillbilly voodoo Posted July 17, 2022 Report Share Posted July 17, 2022 I would be checking line tie first Next float it in a clear container of water and check if it’s properly balanced odds one of the above is the issue 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn’t add a lot of weight because I didn’t want it to dive, maybe I should have added more. thanks guys! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodieb8 Posted July 19, 2022 Report Share Posted July 19, 2022 if its running off its normally crooked lip.or check the pull wire if its beyond 1 inch from pull wire to end of lip normally its an issue. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
