I had some 1" ayc stock I was messing with last weekend and I tried to make a mini bottle darter for my light rod. I took it for a test swim and it rolled right over & came in upside down...
Those are cool. If they aren't swimming the way you want yet, you might want to try a longer lip which will help the plug dive more (using a 3/4" drum sander makes it easier on the bottle darter) and rocker the cheeks back an 1/8-3/16" on each side to give the face a little curve.
Very nice Strike King, I think you better get ready for some nice Bass with those beauties.
That color pattern is my favorite. I always found the bass to seem to agree also.
