I made light weight flutter spoons out of a willow leaf spinner bait spinners. Just drill a small hole in the tail end use a jump ring for your treble hook and a small barrel swivel on the opposite end. Falls erratic and slow just like a wounded shad. You can make them multiple sizes to match the bait size. Need to fish it on spinning rig or light line, but it will get hit with nothing else works. Try them in silver and use a dye stick or a blue sharpie pen to add a lateral line.. experiment with different hook / swivel sizes to add or reduce weight.

Good idea!

Really appreciate the info!

Dont try a kastmaster with a triple grip for a hook....
