I have a couple of them, and both do the same---I have to bend the thin metal tail fin back every 3-6 casts to keep them running right. Anyone else experience this? Any suggestions/solutions? Makes a unique sound and have had action on them, but tinkering with the fin that frequently is a problem.

I had both sizes and the Jr would bend out of position much more quickly than my larger one. But you're right, they "torpedo" the water tail first and it bends the tail forward slightly. They have an awesome sound, cast a mile, don't roll over and run in a good chop really well but the tail thing killed me. The more it tweaked the softer it got.
