Just started making the U-Rigs and testing before ice up.
All the large (4-6oz) spinnerbaits tell me these will work too.
All my big skis are caught on my big blades ... and big rubbers.
Molds next.

what size blades are those? Do you ever make smaller ones? Like under 2oz? I love the blades on the black one, those would be awesome on a shad colored spinnerbait for my lake in southern Illinois.

Those range from #5 and relatively light to #12 ( on the black shad pattern) and VERY heavy. I make anything from 1/4oz and up. Sometimes way up.
