Good Stuff Mike
you seem to understand plugs very well and you catch on fast to how they are made.
I bet you have a lot of fun fishing those  |

Yes, they're Salty's conrad jr lips.
I also have a couple 7.5" conrads primed right now. They're not technically SR's because they're skinnier and are going to take the jr lips....maybe I'll call them conrad sr slims... |
It's not the bait
At the end of your line
It's the fishing hole
Where all the fish is blind

Nice ,, todays bait patterns,, (few pogies) Most would say "slim is in "... That lip really digs ,, very interrested how that turns out ... still giant chunk of lead in the belly and hydro to ward off roll out .. I think your on to something .. a deep slim .. |

I put .5 in the belly and the finished plug will be around 2.5 oz, which may be a little on the light side, but we'll give it a go in the canal first before I change anything.
Pretty sure I put .250 in the conrad jrs so .5 in the bigger one should be ok, we'll see.
I also have some big 8" slope head canal divers I'm almost done with and they have about .750 in the belly and go right down without any roll.
They're like this one in the pic and weigh about 3.85 oz all finished and rigged.
