Why don't you try and get some kits from Mike at cape cod tackle. I'm pretty sure he had a 'polaris' style kit the last time I was in the shop. If you go that route, you'd also get all hardware you need to build and weight the plug correctly... Hope that's ok to post. He's a sponsor here...

Diggin, I know Mike has them, BUT there THREW WIRED READY.Im a SCREW-EYE type of guy.also that would mean Id have to FILL MORE HOLES. if there just TURNED I can do the REST. would be NICE to see some on the market MMMMMMMMM could be a MONEYMAKER for SOMEONE.

Aqua-man, thank you, BUT YES you are to FAR -AWAY


The Dad Fisherman. an out of the NIGHT comes a SHINNING STAR,

BOTTLE POPPERS 6 would be NICE.
Im still new at this! what are the ones w/ the curved face, I have a 3/4 sanding drum attachment for a drill. I can CUP the face with. would that mean a longer front section. also remember Numbskull saying to curve the sides for it to swimm, I believe. sorry STILL learning.
GOOD LUCK GOOD PLUGGIN
