The neat thing about this stuff is its got lazer straight grain, which causes the lure body to parallel with the water, so cutting lip slots and hydro testing was quite simple. I'm a bit concerned with the brittle nature of the wood due to the fact I placed a piece in the water(unsealed) very briefly to orient it and it cracked around the hook hanger holes. Its bouyancy seems to be somewhere between AYC and pine.
