Redwings1 0 Report post Posted June 28, 2006 Good looking fly, but with that head shape it will likely act more like a slider and take short dives under the surface. To get it to truly just 'pop' make the face atleast vertical and even cant it slightly forward. Great looking paint job as well! :headbang: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jdhill 0 Report post Posted June 28, 2006 I took a dremel to the front so it has a bowl shape to it that will help with the popping sound but you are correct it will dive slightly Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
