Stargazer I'm not sure what you are referring to for an A style? Atom 40 style? The dimensions for the lips should be on the site for width/depth that would help you more than me as I don't know the size of the lure. Large danny could be 1" wide or it would be 8" ;D

I'd look at either the danny 2 lip or the lefty 1 lip I think for that small size?

Nothing to be sorry for? Take some pics of the front of the lure and post em here with the different lips we'll tell you which to use. You'll always get an opinion :)

The lure is in the fishermen magazine issue #8 small Danny.I don't think i can take a picture.It lists to use pike 0.5 or 7/8 A-style lip from another site.I'd rather find comparable item on your site.

Yes I don't make smaller than a #1 pikielip. Have considered it but punch/die costs are prohibitive right now. I just sprang for the Conrad/Atom Sr setup. Some guys have used lefty one lips as on the site as a replacement. You wouldn't be able to tell the difference in it swimming.
