I have been tying a ton of ep baitfish lately. Some with tails some without. Anyway they allways look great but want to swim sideways or somthin. The only way i have gotten them to swim vertical is wrap a little lead wire around the shank. This work but it sinks faster and makes it harder to tie. How do you guys solve this problem?
My first guess too. With each hank you tie in, try with 1/2 as much. Also, remember to "taper" each hank before tying it in by pulling a few strands from each end out longer.
