I came up with a rapala type design so far.
I made it with AYC and made a plexiglas lip as I have no lexan.
I did not put weight in it and it swims pretty good. I might try a touch of lead to see the difference.

Maybe I will try more of these and try red cedar too.
I think i will make a metal lip for them and see how that goes.
