21XDC you need more time on the water and less time in the shop. Having said that, those are some interesting looking lures. Not sure what the blade action is gonna do to your spinner blades but one never knows, you may have a winner there.

Nice job and thanks for sharing
Wishing y'all tight lines and bent wriggling rods. Happy Fishing!

Being the line is not tied to the blade and is tied like a spinner bait my guess is that this will not vibrate like a blade bait will and is only a metal spinnerbait. So not sure you have anything special there. Just my opionion.

I will say this... A skirt on a spinnerbait does not look like any baitfish or anything they eat in the lake...  BUT, This does..  ;D

A bass will eat a bright blue brush hawg... What it that supposed to be?  :D   Our clear water here and smallmouth will smash these.

I'm wondering how those hooks will work in the weeds.

Not near as well as a single hook.. These work great for rocky smallmouth waters... You could always use weedless treble hooks.

It would have to be open water fishing. Where I'm from a spinner bait is a reaction bait and needs to bump off of wood or rip through the weeds. Treble hooks would not do well.

I guess where your from nobody uses lipless cranks or square bills with TWO trebles ripping through grass and bumping wood...  ;D  This is no different and may be even better for that.  ;)  Still has the reaction bite qualities.

But have you tried them yet ? Do they vibrate ? My point is that traps and blades tie in the middle which cause them to vibrate. Yours is held by the nose with a stiff wire. My guess is it will just ride below the blades with no action. If you put a loop with a split ring and then put the blade in one of the holes you would get it to vibrate. But not like you have it. It's a neat idea. And yes we use traps and square bills in grass because you can tick to top of the grass with them. Never blades because they sink to deep in the grass and are harder to control the depth your fishing. A blade sinks like a rock
