So I have one of the old Johnson silver minnows with the inline spinner on front, but they don't make them anymore. Anyone know of a manufacturer that makes something similar? Or a good place to get inline spinners to add to my existing spoons? Mi would really love to find a spinner that would work with my larger spoons.

I've always loved the action the spinners produced when coming through pads, reeds, and any grass.

You are referring to the Johnny O'Neil Weed Wing....similar to the Johnson Silver Minnow but with a spinner on the front. I think they're made by Panther Martin now...do a Google search and you'll find lots of them.

I have a few of the lures you were talking about. See photo below.
#1 - Johnson Silver Minnow w/spinner
#2 - 2 Weed Wings
#3 - Keel weighted spinners I use to attach other lures
#4 - 2 other mini spoons w/spinner
#5 - Weedless spinner I use to attach various trailers
#6 - A spinner w/ball bearing swivel I use to attach large spoons. It's really quite weedless.

Thats interesting with the bent wire. But the treble hooks would be nasty in the weeds
