Reverse Atom Tuning

A friend has asked me to make a reverse atom for him. I have an old amber one that I'm using as a template for dimensions, wire and hook locations. This one's been drilled in the rear chamber so that it fills up with water, which makes it sit and swim a certain way. Was that typical? Or should I tape the holes over and try to match that attitude sitting in the water and the action associated with the empty rear chamber?

Was wondering if the filled rear chamber meant that it had been used in heavier current or someting like that.
