He told me the same thing and showed me the single hook setup he uses most. He starts with a large limerick hook and straightens the shank. I don't recall the size, but when straight it is 3.3 inches long with a .75' hook gap.

He used thread and super glue on the hook shank and inserts the hook through the nose and out the underside.That's it.

If he wants to get deeper, he uses the largest lunker city pencil weights, up to 4 of them, two in the head section and two in the tail.

Nice guy and helpful. I didn't know who he was until I saw the pics and read the story.

Best regards,
Roger
