After reading threads and learning from you guys for over a year I finally dusted off my lathe and began turning. Well after 15 or 20 minutes this is what I created. however I made a rookie mistake cut the ends off before drilling through holes and belly holes. Oh well still correctable. However I have a question about weighting. Plug is 2oz alone I'm Planning to use maybe 1/4 oz in belly and maybe more in tail. Does this sound ok? Thanks again for sharing your knowledge.

Salty, thanks I'm sure ther will be alot of trial and error and of course field testing.
