Posts: 20248 Location: oswego, il | These are a few of a bunch of old spoons I bought at a flea market, cleaned up, polished and clear coated. I turned them into chatter spoons. I already know the one with the swivel works great, I made one a few years ago. I want to compare it to the other two without a swivel. One has just one split ring to the spoon and then other has two. I want to see if it makes the lure walk.

Posts: 32922 Location: Rhinelander, Wisconsin | All of the listed. FYI nearly ALL of the 'cool new lures' out there are based upon or are dead copies of much older lures. Not much really cool and new in muskie lures other than improvements on the old. | ||

Posts: 20248 Location: oswego, il | I tried.the chatter spoons in Canada. I set it over the side of the boat drug it about 3ft and a walleye ate it. I made a cast and a pike ate it. Still had the hook protectors on. All worked but the one with the swivel best. Very erratic and walks! | ||

Posts: 196 | Interesting looking baits! It will be interesting to see if the ones with split rings walk, like you think they will. Where were you able to purchase the hammered chatter blades? | ||

Where were you able to purchase the hammered chatter blades? All of them worked but the one with the crane swivel worked the best. It allowed the most movement of the spoon which made the bait walk the most.. I bought the blades from Rollie and Helen's when they were on clearance 10 for a dollar. | ||
