I have been toying with these for a little while.I wanted a spinnerbait for grubs only.These are 1/16 oz. with a size 1 hook.This one has a Crappie Thunder Grub on it.I'm just trying to get something a little smaller to catch some crappies and not green carp all the time.RonDon you have the market for the handties,for me anyway.I just hate the whole split ring thing,What a pain in the a- -.
Good luck weeding out the bass. I have used the smallest beetle spins and still caught bass, some kinda big. I think it's the vibration.

az looks good to me also
My eyes are getting worst,and I only have bigger split ring pliars,lol.I need a magnifying glass for those little tiny things.I'm all good with the big saltwater stuff,Ha
No,just seeing them fat,lol.
A friend of mine was fishing with his wife and on a little beetle spin she caught an 8 pound bass just dooddling at the boat as that is what he told her to do, just jig it up and down right here, LOL! Now this was a pretty long time ago, but at that time I fished almost all the time with her brother and we fished a lot. She with that 8 pound bass had us all beat. That was before this lake got some of the much bigger bass they have here now.
AZ: You know your getting old when the eyes start giving you trouble. Dang hate to admit it but I need my glasses more all the time. Has any one noticed that the eyes on hooks keep getting smaller. Darn hard to put line thur them any more without glasses.

I knowwww,I know,lol.
hold on i cant read this let me get glasses on.........ok now i can see
Try threading tippet through a size 22 fly!!!!!!!! you want tough LOL
Instead of the split rings a bunch of the guys that make pony jigs are using butt rings NO laughing Butt Rings, split ring replacement for fishing lure making
Just have to squeeze them together.:D

Now we're talking.Thanks for that.And that size 22 fly hook you can keep,lol
Sounds like that should be a Pain in the Butt ring...size 22?? We use bigger hooks than that fishin for trotline bait.
Got a buddy over in NC that likes to fly fish the mountain streams for native brookies and some of the stuff he catches cant be more than 4-5 inches long and about as big around as my pinky finger. I dont get it but am happy for folks that like chasin them little fish.
You think the 22's are small I know some of the guys who tie on size 32's!!!! Now that is never going to happen with this kid LOL. I'd think about the butt rings myself but I just bought 1000 split rings a few months ago. Gotta use those first.
