Nice work. I remember one of my fishing buddies used to wear a shirt that applies. Had a bass on it, below the bass was the caption...
"I'd hit that."

How do they work? As good, better, or ............?
I ash because I have made my own spinning lures for use in the ponds and lakes in the Adirondacks as they have many snag hazards. My own results are mixed at best. I'm still trying to find the "magic" ingredient.
Nice looking work.

I think they work just as good as store bought. Probably no better.

All made from poplar wood. I get the wood at Homedepot. Cut a profile out on a bandsaw then hand sand .
