				BM Schoolie Lip Question
			 
 Here we have a mini Musso Torpedo, BM Schoolie, Musso Surface Swimmer Jr..
 Lips - Lefty 1 midslot, Lefty 2 ??? midslot, Lefty 2 midslot ???
 
 The lip in the schoolie is identical to a lip I believe I removed from a BM Jr.  MAKE SENSE?
 
 Anyone know anything about the front face height differences between the Schoolie lip and the Musso lip to its right???

				 | Like I said in my reply to your other post its a strange lip. Try a couple different lips and see what swimming action comes closest to the original. |

				 | schoolie lip is close to a BM jr lip but not quite it's a tough match
 I'm running into same problem .  I used lefty  lip on some  they swam well .
 Also used smaller lip  I made lures freehand so some are fatter
 fatter lip with small lip had nice wiggle

				 | I take a lefty 2 & grind it down, Bm's jr lip is a pikie / lefty2 hybrid of sorts. |

				 | Jon, if the diameter is around 1"and it's not over 5-6" w non weighted tail, a lefty 1 mid will swim it fine. |

				Thanks guys
			 
 What are you Musso dupers using for lips in those Surface Swimmers/pines/maples??
 Wonder if it would be worth it to have a bunch of those made.  There is a place here in Waterford called SECONN Fabrication that does all kinds of metal work.
