Lc Pointer Question

[ncbassfisher1496]

Are Lucky Craft Pointer 78s supposed to suspend nose down or horizontal? I just got my first ones and the 100 suspends nose down while the 78 is horizontal. I was just wondering if this was right.

[kickerfish1]

All of the 78 series pointers I have used suspend horizontally and pretty much perfectly.

And the 100s are supposed to suspend nose down?

_{That's weird because mine suspends nose down.}

are you tieing directly or using a swivel or snap?

[ncbassfisher1496]

I'm just tying it on directly and its at about a 45 degree angle. I think that's how its supposed to be though.

are you using them in the same water? if yes, sounds like you got a bum 78, maybe a weight is stuck at the front of the lure? try shaking it around.

The 100 is the one suspending nose down. The 78 is horizontal.

is this a slight nose down or a vertical presentation? the slight nose down is perfect, anything more is wrong.

[ncbassfisher1496]

I'd say its a little less than 45 degrees.
