The ones that I had built had either a pikie 3 lip or a lefty 2 high slot lip. Both caught fish but I really liked the way they swam with the lefty 2 high slot lip. Those would get a few feet subsurface but didn’t have as aggressive of a wiggle to them as the ones with the pikie 3 lip which did have the advantage of getting down a little bit deeper if that is what you are going for. I started on a few more with the left 2 high slot and a little more belly weight than I used last year this weekend. Not built exactly to the specs posted but pretty close.

Around how far back on the senior was the cut for the sloped head on the rattler? Looks like it might be around 3” from the front of the plug? I might give one of those a shot.
