took a long time, but i converted... i have some "commercial" and "Non-commercial" wooden plugs that don't sit right in the water, or swim properly... and the weight of the hooks, hardware etc. did not correct the issues... by taking these plugs and dissecting them and the issues they had individually... hydro would have cured most of the ills... once all hardware and weights removed..and just dropped the wood in a bucket... well seeing is believing the float test told the tale, before and after...
also proper weight placement ...tail weights have to be dead on center...(belly weights too, but that is a given)
i have a commercial made (no names and never will reveal so no PM's please
) pencil that sits with the belly hook almost full out of water...will not correct on retrieve either... easy culprit to ID...tail weight is way off center , so plugs lays about 100 degrees out...
no quality control in that shop.....
never say never Larry.. and i'm freaking bull-headed...but i converted.. i'm drinking the hydro now..
