This is what I call my "Daddy of all Spinnerbait Arm"; arrogant ain't I . It's a rigid arm design with the weighting incoperated into the arm itself. Photo shows a prototype fitted with my floating shallow running lure. The combinations possible are endless actually; a few that I've tried:
1. small worm to replace blade with lure;
2. live rubber skirted hook (don't need a jig-head for this);
3. most SP attached to arm with/without blade.
(been catching fish with it, now I'm sharing it with u guys.)

Anyone seen this design b4? If it's new I'll be charging royalty for it's use Comments welcome, especially from our wire-bait experts here as I'm still green in doing this type of lures; hope to improve on this concept. Post your combinations if you're trying this.

lol dang LaPala ....cool concept. Is that arm made from a pair of sun glasses?

Sorry LaPala, Hildebrandt beat you to it I think there's is using a glass arm though?

Dang :!: :!: :!: My claim to fame has been denied & I notice Hildebrandt did it in 2004 too. Well another time.

Here's a composite photo of what I've done with it:

the bottom left combo actually caught fish on the worm on the top arm as well.

PS: worms are store bought, I haven't done any SPs yet Maybe coming soon

wheres the buzzbait?

[Markell]

LaPala: This must be the bait your were talking about in the chat a few days ago. That is a neat concept with the crank bait. What does the arm do to the crank as far as action change? Any chance of knowing how you made the arm? Or where you are getting them? Thanks for posting.

[LaPala]

You can do the buzzbait version Dwain.

Mark: Those are fabricated from SS rods, available only thru LaPala or DIY. Lure action not really affected, just make a floater into a countdown with added "attraction" and it runs very upright

Great Concept Lapala...You could really spin that off into all directions...The two grubs together looks interesting...looks like a small school of fish..Nathan
