Thanks Looks like Sinbad! Here in Sweden/Scandinavia we dont have bass but I plan on making a similar design for Perch. I made a smaller one yesterday with only one blade in the front and dressed hook at the back, which I played around with for a couple of hours in the water, spinned like crazy. The next batch of heads and bodies will look slightly diffrent, am working on a couple of new designs at the moment. Very funny to experiment with spinners since I mostly make 3-4oz jerkbaits for Pikes and muskies. This is like a new world to me ...and new borders to break -
No problem diemai Awsome spoons and Asp-baits in your gallery. Will hopefully have time to get some Asp this year, powerful fish. Eric, sometimes less is more The fun is... beeing creative. I simply enjoy playing around with new designs, materials and manufacturing techniques. If a bait have paint or not isnt any issue for me (I probably paint too much anyway). The rear blade is attached with a clevis and spins fine in the water. I always use try and error... either it works ok or not. As simple as that.

Hi diemai, thanks for your input. It spins great in the water, even at really slow speed. The front blade spins freely and isnt restricted by the body. The clevis holding the blade and the body is almost at the same level and the body got a radius in the front that gives the blade the angle it needs to spin freely. What I like the most is that the head wiggle from side to side, in a very xxx-y way

Small spinner for pike, 120mm long with two spinnerblades.

My new heads for large casting-pikeflies and blade baits. -
Heres my first ever softbait, it got some dents and bubbles but that will be sorted next time. I take one small step at the time, trying to make as small mistakes as possible. -

Your creations are fantastic as always! -
Fantastic colours and shape. -
Will keep some of them as they are, the rest will be painted and coated with e-tex. -
Regular PMMA-acrylic like Plexiglas is often polished with heat (like a acetylene-torch or similar) but Polycarbonate like Lexan needs to be polished to get shiney again. At work Im using a polish-compound specially made for Plexiglas, which is distributed by our local Evonik/Degussa/Röhm (Plexiglas) -dealer, but I dont remeber the brandname of it. Most polish-compounds will do the job quite well but make sure that you try it out on a spare-Lexanpart before you use it on your actual lure-part.

Wow, awesome looking bait, the best Ive seen in a long, long time. Fantastic! -
Handmade jerkbait painted with regular brush and acrylic paint. -
Awesome work, is the head made of lead? -
Tnx! Braveviper: the eyes are made of acrylic (same material as "Plexiglas").
