BC!, check out the thread on this page begun by La Pala about thru-wire. For balsa baits, the easiest (and strongest) thing to do is split the bait with a single edged razor blade. Put in the wire frame and ballast and use 5 min epoxy to rejoin the halves. If you scribe a center line around the bait after you cut out the blank, while it's still "square", the line serves as a cutting line. Pretty easy to do and effective.
