I found the same thing on the donny pine jr too.(hand poured belly weights, not glued in)

My hook positions are the same as yours, no tail hook, but I might insert 6 grams of lead(what the trebles I'm using weigh) into the tail to help it fly.

What type of lip are you using?
Mike, before you "dissect" any more plugs check with me, I can probably save you the sin.
