Big Nike and Banana up later today!
Lou- I went with a .25oz belly and .75 of a inch of 1/4 tail weight in the stern... swims real nice and the tail is not too crazy... used the Montana fluoro green and one of their bright yellow... artist grade rattle cans..

should I rig with 4x or 6x 3/0s?

I've gone to cut VMC's only now, 4X! I use a Dremel with the thin abrasive disks and bend them like Gary does. There is a S.J. video on YouTube of how to bend them by Gary.
