Thanks Guys!

Douglas,

A lot of builders have noticed that their circuit board lips give the lure more action compared to thicker polycarbonate lips--It is not that the micarta lips have more action, per se,. but that the material is so much thinner.

I noticed the action difference after I began dressing the lips to a finer ultra-smooth edge, my motivation initially being to avoid losing fish that were cutting the line on rough deep diver lips...and the smooth lips seem to resist the rough-spotting, and stay smooth.

A sharper action and a bit more depth were side benefits of the lip smoothing for me.
