Hey Urban,
The bill slot is cut extremely tight,then on the back of the lip I place a little rubber compound that keeps it from slipping....I'm not saying you couldn't lose a lip,but it wouldn't be easy.If someone prefers a permenant bill,I'll epoxy it in..no big deal
How do I get it too sit that way in the water...Head down,tail up..It's magic!!..LOL..It's just how I have it weighted and the materials I use.The current sinking Bluegills I have out set the same way..Nathan
