For home made hard baits, what are the thoughts on placing a small split shot about 12" above the lure instead of trying to weight the lure itself?
What is the best way to preserve the action of a hard bait made of cedar or pine, I guess is the issue. I know I prefer unweighted nymphs for my flyfishing, because the weight alters the action. I would prefer to use a small strip of twist on lead or sinking tip, but that, too, alter the action somewhat.
