Thanks for the info on length and weight .
I've got the lips but how should it swim , should the tail actually clear the water ?

What works for me is, rod at 11 o clock, a quick rod tip back to dig the lip, then a verrrryyy, verrrryyy slow crank. The plug will give a nice side to side to side motion leaving a large V wake. Depending on the retrieve, the tail will ride high in the water and with a quick back motion on the rod and release will give it a tail slap. Hope this helps.

The small (7200 size) surfster lips are now available. I am adding them to the site tomorrow am. Hope you enjoy them. Im looking forward to making some Freshwater surfster swimmers with them myself .This one should be very interesting, a very versatile lip.
and Thanks for the kind words guys.

You didnt miss out Young Salt, I only had a dozen or so in my pocket to show, none were sold. I just finished the batch today, very bad timing on my part.
