I'm planning on turning a few Nike's today and I'm curious as where I should be weighting them at. I'm planning on making mine anywhere from 4"-5" long. I've did some searching through old forums and I've come to the conclusion that they should be tail weighted, however I will be using screw eyes so I wont be able to use a direct tail weight. How should this plug sit when it's in the water? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!
