your much better than when I started,, If your fairly new to plugbuilding ,I really can't tell,,Try not to make large batches of plugs . say a pikie.. make 1 or 2 ... take it down swim it .. bring it back tweak it .. hows the roll , hows the swim .tweak ,, You might not like the lip your using ,,overpowering,,,not enough ? How's your weighting for the size your building.. hows it sit in the water when its at rest ? I tried orig CCB weighting around the wire instead of chin .. big mistake .. roll like beotch .. sits higher in salt that kind of weighting no good for the plug i was building .. Most of us learned from the real masters..CCB,Bob Pond Atoms Lures,,Bob Hahn,Stan Gibbs, list goes on and on ..Try to mimic these guys .. get an old beater of there's ,, study . your doing good .. This method will save you money too ..
