Example: I studied/tested and fished several "Surfsters" when I was designing my "Prey" swimmer. All the models I tried rolled 180 degrees and were unweighted......and I hated them! I was looking for less roll and more wiggle. I simply dropped a shot of "00" in the belly to give it more keel effect along with the 3/0 hooks and achieved the desired action. Just that subtle change with the same lip radically changed the action of the "surfster" style "Prey". I believe weighting will have more to do with the action of a particular plug than will the lip. My .02 cents.....in this economy might not be worth that much but there it is.

Almost time to get our fish on!!!
