Troubleshooting

Lure not swimming straight

Ensure the lure is tied securely and the knot is centered. Check for any damage to the lure body or tail that might be affecting its balance. Try a different retrieve speed or retrieve style.

Hooks not setting properly

Verify the sharpness of the Berkley Fusion19 treble hooks. If they become dull from frequent use or contact with debris, consider replacing them. Ensure you are using an appropriate hook-setting technique for your setup.

Paint chipping or damage

Handle the lure with care, especially when storing or transporting it. Avoid rough contact with rocks or hard surfaces. Minor chips can be touched up with appropriate waterproof paint if desired, but do not affect the lure's action.
