Jig it, spin it, buzz it, if it's got a wire or a lead head, it can and will be discussed in here.

Goodness gracious--great balls of flare!

They look meticulously done, but I do wonder whether the thick balls of strands will provide too much resistance to side-to-side movement to let the blade give the lure shimmy. I hope to see some fish pics in a month or two to shame me over shimmy concern!

No resistance at all nice tight wobble straight back to the boat.

Might-could-be a great bottom bouncer bladed jig.

A shad colored one would be awesome on the spots in my area.

Now for the $60,000 question… how does it look in the water?

They look very good in the water and all my Louisiana gizzard shad baits in Jigs Spinnerbaits Buzzbaits And Blade baits work well. I make several shad color by change up the accent colors.
