A few homemade white bass baits.

I decided to make some inline spinners since I've had Great luck with Dennis Christian's Mepps technique. I'm curious to see how my lures will compare. I have caught countless whites on my crappie jigs styled after Jigum's Halo Magic, so I made a few that color as well. All of the lure bodies are powder coated with UV reactive paint. All tips, feedback, and criticism are appreciated. This is my first time pouring the lure bodies and making the inline spinners.

Those are awesome! Need a field tester?

Awesome job, those look great...
How do you paint them?

Also, I have about 30 single "big" blades somewhere...
Glad to send 10 blades to you, if and when I can find them...lol
And if you send me back 1 finished lure for 10 blades...

Very nice.

They are powder coated and cured so they should hold up great. What kind of blades do you have? I have tons of blades, just only one size French blade.

Well done!

So they're annoying, smell bad, and hate Americans?

Good looking spinners and if you come down towards Whitney or Aquilla I'll be more than happy to help you test some.

Good job let us know how they do

Nicely done. Good job.

Very nice. Look great. Let us know how they work.

I have done the same thing and made my own in line spinners. Pretty fun to build them. The one thing that I noticed on the mepps spinners is that the blade is almost 3/4 the total size of the bait. The ones I made were like 1/2 the size of the overall bait. Not sure if this changes anything, but I am guessing there is some serious research that mepps does on there blades, because there is not really anyone who duplicates them that well according to the gurus.

I would use them. They look cool

Really nice looking paint job on those.
Where do you buy the steel wire from?

Hagen's

Looking forward to a report on how they work.

Those look like sandie killers!!!! Looking forward to your results. I know you'll do well with those.

I read where the Mepps folks used 60,000 squirrel tails last year. That's a lot of squirrel dumplins

Very nice.

Nice baits. Good job.

Great looking work! I really like the halo magic ones. Are you gonna use them in the Sabine?
