This is a link to some pics and info in the Norris Jet Squid. Any info available on weight (if any) and location in the plug body. I was planning on making a few this weekend.

Can't help you with the Norris, sorry, but thanks for posting that link. I'd seen it before but forgotten about it. There is a lot of good info on that site.

Maybe Capesams, Steve, will chime in as he has made some beauties in the past. I have a beautiful one he made.

If you scan down page here, 4th from the bottom, you can see one of his. You may just want to send him a PM. He really isn't that grumpy

Also Biteme, Jim, may also be able to offer you some info too.

I posted a picture here somwhere of a few I made a moth or so ago... I put a tail weight in the probiscus and a belly weight just forward of the rear hook, just my own guess, but they swim as well or better than any spook I have made..

I just checked someone else Noris and I see THREE
Two in the head and one behind the head :musc:
I will check mine when I get home and let you know

checked mine, one i can't see any and the other has 2, one in the head the other is in the neck, hope this helps.

Back in the day their was no quilty control ...LOL

thanks VB and Rockfish.. I will try a few diff weighting schemes and see how they fish. My sister has a house on the Cape and JB Norris built it. I wonder if it is the same Norris family.
