Like the stubby one on the bottom, that's different and neat! Did you try swimming that thing at all? Curious what kind of wiggle you get?

Nice paint as always Bernzy!

Paulbo, I usually place weight in the nose of the pikie, about 0.7 inch back from the front (center of weight hole). 3/8 inch diameter hole. Usually .3-.35 inch slug of lead for the hole. That is for a 7 inch pikie that will weigh 3.2-3.3 oz when rigged with hardware. Bernzy will have to let you know if he put lead in that one. A lot depends on the action you want from the plug. No weight and it will wobble on top more like a red fin. I weigh mine so that the top of the lip (where it goes into the plug) is level with the water line. This creates more of a wobble with a little roll too. Throws a nice wake this way. A little more weight will increase the roll some. Will also depend on the lip and the face cut. A shorter face with weight will create more of a roll.
