tested a new needle design today, 7.5" floater at 1.75oz, one big .5oz belly weight about 3/4 back from the nose, with two 3/0 vmcs.
slow retrieve it makes a massive v wake, bigger than a danny or surfster, faster retrieve with some twitches it spooks left to right and glides to a stop, was going to add more weight after my first float test but after fishing it today, i think ill leave it, i have plenty of other needles that sink.
Dont have any that are TRUE floaters, but lots of slow sink ones.
will be nice to have a longer profile needle/pencil for the back bays that will serve a dual purpose.
finished sanding 40 more plugs on friday night, just need to prime and theyll be ready for paint, and then put together a large order for weights, lips, swivels, wire, etc.
have a lot of random one off stuff from a few years ago and stuff that never got finished that I want to put to bed already.
