This is a fishing lure I have been designing and upgrading for a while now, it uses 6mm ball bearings for weight, stainless steel wire for line tie and rear hook hanger, and a swivel for belly hook hanger.
Checkout LureForge, the beginner friendly lure making app, create your lure, make sure it floats/sinks, and export it as an STL or a 2D template for wood carving.

Update July 27, 2023
I uploaded a new version that uses twist wire (0.8mm, 1mm, and 1.2mm). If you want me to support more twist wire diameter or screw eyes, add a comment with your request.
This lure has two internal chambers, the one in the back is for buoyancy, and the one in the front is a rattle chamber, you can pause the print before it closes, insert some steal balls, and resume the print.
