Looks real good sealed. Like the paint alot. I'm swamped with work and the kids sports. I'll call you this weekend. I was messing around with dropping the line tie down abit on these and did not like the outcome. Bigger weight in the same spot does the trick. Finally got one to work made from pine too. I want to make a bunch of small ones for Largemouth. Glad to see you are doing some stuff again.

Sometimes

it's good to ask the question....Bay was good enought to PM me with some weighting info and I headed out this morning to try to swim my first darter attempt...the first retrieve was not pretty, it sort of laid on one side veering off as I reeled....but.... I strapped on a little weight in the amount and area where he'd suggested and the second retrieve was a pleasure to watch, I'm going to play with the hook sizes too as was suggested in another thread...this was very good because the conditions this morning were not conducive to standing at the end of the pier for very long....
