Craig Posted October 3, 2017 Report Share Posted October 3, 2017 If you are using a light wood I doubt you'll need to add weight. But if you do its easy to add in afterwards. VanBass1707 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trav Posted October 3, 2017 Report Share Posted October 3, 2017 Depending on the shape of the bottom of the bait, you may need to add some weight to keep it from rolling. If the bottom of the bait is a wider, flat profile, you may get away with just using magnum hardware Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
