The weight is just forward of center, so no I didn't move it very much to compensate for the lack of rear hook. I made one last winter as a prototype and with the weight of a skin the plug swam almost level just slightest bit nose down which helped it dig in and hold very well in current. I think if you wanted it to swim completely level the addition of a piece of brass chain would accomplish this. I still have a bit to learn about skin plugs as this was the first year I've used them so I'm still undecided on exactly what I want them to do. But there certainly is alot of fish catching potential in this style plug.
