A trusted warrior, going to a noble death. Hope I find it!
On a more serious note, does it swim or is that unneccessary? The shorties I built don't swim, at least as well as the longer needles I own. The one that is most balanced (i.e., the least tail heavy) will zig zag and glide a little if I work it with short jerks. The others just come to the top and leave a wake, maybe the feathers sway a little. Not what I was hoping for. Much to learn.

Matt,, I'm tempted to tell you some mathematical count down method ,consisting of reeling and a twich of the wrist on every 3 rotations with a rod tip raise on every 10 and a pause on every 20 . I would sound smart and I'd be pretty impressed with myself ..Truth is . I usually hook up after a wave hits me and I have to regain my footing or I stop to dig my waders out of my arse . |
