What do you think of this idea? Here are a few different looks at it. Here is a photo of how I did it.

I combined Danger! Danger! with a tube tail.

IMHO ... This lure has it all
color,
flash,
sound,
vibration
soft tube action
and scent when packed with crappie nibbles using a bait pump.
Dip it into "Gulp! juice, or tip with a wax worm for additional scent, and fish away.
Similar in concept to a Blakemore RoadRunner.Quote:

Ship those might just work with a small curly tail or grub body too.

great concept there Shippy":D
Nice looking lure.
Actually the blade is on a tiny clevis instead of a spilt ring which helps the bait "Flap" and also move up and down subtly in the water column. Thanks for the input everyone.Quote:

Could you show a close up of the clevis set up on the blade? The ones that I got from you are on a split ring.Quote:

G3 Those were the first prototypes. I do not use a split ring now. I use a smaller clevis and then the blade. The clavis is threaded through with #4 lb line and then attached to the bottom of Danger. Makes a much nicer presentation.
