Were you purposely trying to catch a fish on every bait? If not, why did you change lures after catching the 1st fish on the 1st lure?

Just wondering.

He said he was tuning every bait, so I think that was the purpose of the exercise, and while doing so, he caught a fish on each one.

i make and sell Balsa Crankbaits...as with ALL crankbaits you need to be sure they run true by tuning them.i had made 21 ,2 days before and always hand tune every bait so i cast them and retrieved them one at a time and adjust the line tie eye so the bait runs strait.as i did this i was catching a bass on every bait in about 6 casts as i tuned them.ended up catching a bass on every bait before i was done. true story! so does color really matter? going back there this morning to tune 4 baits for a guy will see how they bite.will run my iphone and try to vedio it.

Really cool!

How do you make sure they are running the right depth? I
Is that already set in stone by the design?

the angle,and length and width of the bill and weight in the bait will determine how deep the bait will run.like short bill run shallow ,long bill run deeper. and 40 some years building them helps lol!
