Cloned from BM Schoolie, but will use a Lefty 2-Midslot lip since the one BM uses is a proprietary hybrid pikie lip.

Swam one with the L2 lip that I bent up a bit and got a pleasant surprise. Instead of swimming on or just below the surface as the BM did, these went down 4+ feet in a moderate current and had a nice wide wiggle witht the line tie level. With the tie bent down parallel to the lip it swam down about 12" with the same action.

After these cure for another couple days I'll wire up.

Thanks to all who have inspired, assisted and tolerated,
Jon
