cesportsman Posted January 28, 2007 Report Share Posted January 28, 2007 Question... just made a few new baits, took one to the lake yesterday. It did great, threw nice everything worked well, but I would like just a little more wobble.Kind of tight now. I have a few more ready for paint and to glue lips in so I cant change angle of lip slot. If I move the line tie toward the body will that increase the wobble or decrease the wobble.? I know that will affect the depth of the bait but these are new type shallow bait and thats not a real big issue for me as of now. Just wondering which way to go with the line tie so I dont have to glue another lip in and waste another bait if it isnt what Im wanting.. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vodkaman Posted January 28, 2007 Report Share Posted January 28, 2007 If it is a shallow swimming bait, I assume that it is a steep lip angle. The steep angle will give you side to side oscillation or 'waggle'. You could move the eye further back but I doubt that it will solve the problem. I suspect that the lip is too short. Try temporarily gluing a larger lip over the existing one to see the effect, while your at it, try diferent shapes. If it is a square lip, try rounding the leading edge. It would be easier for people to help you if we had a picture of the lure, or, if you don't want to give the game away, a more detailed description of the current lip and eye geometry. Good luck with it and report back your solution, I am very interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
