Interesting. Is the bill as big(thick) as it looks ? White. Orange. Black. Gold glitter. Red eye. Green/Lime. May not be the slickest lure around ...............But it has the look. "Come get me." Props. -
Some hobby shops carry small motors. As noted by others, I have adapted an old grill motor and it did the job. Great for a stand-by but there are better small motors available.

Lots of ways as noted by others. For me.....one tapered punch. One hammer. Set hook on anvil ,flat. Put small end of punch in eye opening and give it a lick with the hammer. Continue till opening is the size needed. Temper The" lick" as needed. Nothing hard about this. If all else fails, try YouTube for a tutorial on the subject. Audio/visual.

Just a clean, not over done swim bait. Perfect eye. There are times when less is just right. -
We have Citrus Shad so why not Citrus Craw

Just goes to show what can be done with a basic pattern. Paint jobs are what makes or breaks a lure. For my money, your colors really make those puppies jump. Nicely done! -

This "shell" pattern as I call it, comes up a lot. It gives the painter a license to do what ever they like. An abundance of color combo`s keeps this puppy from growing old. A bright, red-eye would have looked nice... J s/n. Like the PINK> -
With that bill You know that puppy will just disappear into the abyss. Very nice. -
Those short body craws ( at least the body looks short) Would be great for flipping. Do a lot of that in Fl. -
When possible, it`s hands on for me. If I can give it the hands on look over, The quality of the lure will stand out. Or not.

That one I like........ -

Now,that`s an ......EYE! Nicely done. -
