Yeah, the 10 oz have it about 1/3 of the way back more for jigging. I want to try trolling these as well on braid and in that case the further fwd position is slightly better for that, at least that is what I prefer.

If these work out I plan to have a custom alum mold made later in the year after I fish these and hammer out the details. I might have two eyes cut into each mold, one each position. Also I was thinking of putting one on the bottom for a small one like 1 oz size and 3-way that with a large one similar to 3 waying small bucktails.

You can make one with a regular bank sinker mold unmodified...just jam the eye in the spru pour, it is a quickie, not perfect but it gets you there depending on the type of mold you have. The location is different in different molds can be troublesome...in that case break out the dremmel.
