I worked on this Early Season Special  version of Classy Babies  for quite a while trying to build smaller but durable spinnerbait  to sustain brutal power of muskie and big pike for the time when downsizing is in order (spring /early summer, cold fronts, etc)

Well, here what I came up with :

                                                 “Hardware”

3/4oz minnow head,  .051 wire

7/0 extra heavy Mustad long shank hook

5/0 Eagle Claw Trailer Hook

100 strands  Starflash reversed tied with combination of Saltwater flash skirt       

Blades :

Tandem Colorado  #3 & 5 – very comfortable to fish those shallow bays working  slow over any type of structure.

Colorado #3 and Willow # 5 combination – great for burning when the fish is in a more aggressive mood

Quality Ball Bearings with solid rings

Trailer grub: Proven Mister Twister Curly Tail grub 6”

Below are few sample pictures:

Lemon Head

 

Amber Red

 

Baby Blue

 

Black Orange Tiger

 

More to come

Comments, patterns suggestion are always welcomed.

Looks good Archie! Could you post a pic with the spring bait next to your standard Classy? Looks like I'll need a bigger boat!
