Maybe try doing a proportional lead size and placement. In other words, how much bigger than a standard 6" danny is the big one you're making? Lets say its triple the size...you might need triple the belly weight to achieve your fulcrum effect. This might mean you need upwards of 1 oz of belly lead at the widest point of the body, 5/0 hooks, and a custom lip to boot...once you get that down you'll unquestionably need a rod that can cast it which I'll be happy to help you with...
