I swam one I made the other day and loved the action-I think I put the front hook too far forward-it is 1" from the nose-and it gets fouled with the line every other cast. I'm gonna get rid of the split rings on the hooks and see if that helps, if not I'll move the hook back a half inch. The two I made are 5" and everything else is eyeballed since all I had to go on was your pics. One white and one yellow flash

Is it good, or is it Sofa King good?
