Welcome to the Banana Club. Intriguing plug, isn't it? As for your swimmer, you might try dropping the nose screw eye just a little and angling it down. A little weight forward of the belly hook will also move the pivot point forward and give you the tail action you want (I think). If that doesn't work, I'd try moving the lip a little more forward. Good luck.

Yep. The action is unique, for sure. I'll try out your suggestinos on the swimmer, see what happens. I like the pivot point idea. Small split shot for starters.
