i realise that this is a dangerous question to ask on this forum with all you humourous chaps, but ,,,, i bought 5 kokoda sx 40 copies from amazon fishing , how do you tune hard bodied lures to perform well , i see hairy showing us one of his bass caught on one, any help is greatly appreciated :? :? :? :?

Trial & error. If they swim ok you're sweet. Otherwise its a matter of bending the tow point to compensate.

Most cheap lures and some expensive ones have crap trebles. Replace them before you lose a fish

My formula is "left side down, bend to left". So a lure which tends to face its left side to the bottom gets its tow point bent towards that side. And of course, right...right. Works perfectly.
