here are some spinnerbaits that I made:

divani bucktailspinnerbaits are 8.5" long, they have 11 solid brass beads of 3/8" diameter and a tied coil. They feature a size 7 colorado blades and a size 3 crane swivel + splitring

version 1 is a copy I made after Steve Wickens' article. It has a 26g egg-sinker, a size 8 indiana blade and 2 tied size 7/0 hooks

version 2 is also a copy but with a hand-drilled arsley bomb weight (with a swivel inserted) of 1oz. It features a size 7 + size 6 colorado blade and two tied size 7/0 hooks

version 3 is basically the same but with a 2oz arsley bomb weight, also hand-drilled.

Daggone dude, nice baits! Bet the top ones troll good for sure. Will you be selling samples of them? Never could get used to the metric system!

Divani, have you ever made a bait that did not look good? Nice stuff, as usual.

Very cool Dirk, the Version 2 with the double colorado and purple and black would be an excellent bait around here.

Real nice spinnerbaits! I wish I had known you last year. I was in Brugge and would have enjoyed meeting up with you. Maybe next time.

Sponge, that top lure actually works better for casting than it does for trolling. But it trolls well if that's what you mean. I make these for 2 years now and I haven't caught on them yet. I've made about a dozen for a Dutch guy and he has caught numerous pike of over 90cm and I believe 10 of over 40" with 4 of those over 43" and 46.5" being the largest. I don't know what he does to catch that many pike!!

Sponge, the top lure is about 8.5" long, version 1+2 are 13.5" long, version 3 is 15" long.

I'm not selling these because I simply can't make them in large numbers and I don't have the time. Maybe later? These are just for myself.

Todd, what can I say? LOL!!

Maybe next time Bob!
