I have found with the conrads U have to make the lip.It has a pretty steep face..It's not hard to make a few.
I rough em out with snips an clean em up on the belt sander.
Play with the length of the lower portion of the lip.I made a jr that went 2.7 oz
The lower part of the lip was slightly longer.. I thru it out in a 1 kt current an I could barely bring it back.It had a real wide wobble bam bam bam back an forth.I couldn't even pop it out of the water.I thought about giving it a big shot of lead in the pooper but that would take away from the depth,I thought..
I took it home an ground down the lenght of the lip some an it works nice an tight...
Not sure about the depth.Maybe 5 ft.I think the depths obtained on some wooden lures is slightly over rated...

FORE!
It's usually darkest just before it turns Black..
