There is no magic formula for tuning. By bending the line tie, I should have been more precise. Tuning involves bending the eye where that the blade is attached to slightly forward or backward. The key is to get the blade to bang the head at just the correct angle so that it momentarily catches on the head. Some baits are made with eyes that are part of the hook and are much harder to bend than baits made with an eye made from softer metal.
nope, not selling any of my DBaits. I have just enough left to get me through the rest of my tournament fishing.
