Thread: Made myself some miniature teardrop spoons for some Bluegill

Bet they will do the trick ship. NICE

Those look good Ship.

Never used one before, but they definitely look like bream catchers to me. Very nice looking teardrop spoons.

Nice, those look like ice fishing jigs. Are they a winter and spring jig or do they work all summer?

They are used in fresh water under a slip float and tight lined in hard water.

looking good ship! Riverslabber you do see them going down a hole more than not but work just as good any other time of year. i cut a pork bait into small strips....1/8-1/4''...and tip the jig. stays on the hook like super glue. if you notice it needs more juice just drop jig and all back in the jar and grab a fresh one out. makes for some fun action bud

Thank you my friend. I have also seen them use a fresh cut strip of bacon fat. Stays great on the hook. Here are some more I make. Fish them under a slip float, tip them with scent, plastic, or a wax worm and then go get yoour hot sauce ready and your skillet hot. They are going to Lake Crisco.

I add a little marabou, rubber hackle or dressing to the lures. This makes a great vertical lure even more effective. Also most of the time the dressed up lure can be fished bare bones. If fishing slows up I add a small piece of power bait for scent.
