I'm looking for some advice - what's the best way to weight a needlefish? I'm not sure if I should bore the bottom towards the rear or bore out the butt. Which would keep it from spinning?

fut a shot in front of Your belly hole, and then weight it so it will not come at You vert through water.

Thanks Dave, you've saved one of my workin' plugs from a stripping .I'm still looking for a source of s.s. wire though.:)

try welding shops and a search, im sure some one here will tell Ya where. I have not bought ss in a while
