I also found that I needed two belly hooks (I use a teaser for the tail though a third hook could also be used) to make them swim right. Certainly not a plug that I would use in heavy current. The 1 1/2 oz size I make has done well for me and a few others off the beaches in Rhody. Work them slow and on top, boom
