Question I need it heavier !

I'm looking for some advice - what's the best way to weight a needlefish? I'm not sure if I should bore the bottom towards the rear or bore out the butt. Which would keep it from spinning?

fut a shot in front of Your belly hole, and then weight it so it will not come at You vert through water.
