Fall and Winter teardrop and willow leaf spoon lures

Hey folks,

I was messing around in the garage today and was making teardrop lures for fall and winter panfishing. What do you think of them? Thanks for any feedback.

Hey Bxn, people who fish for Crappies, Perch, Bluegill as well as Shellcrackers use ice spoons, teardrop jigs, or pinmins year round. They are as effective ice fishing as they are in fresh water. They are everything you want in a jig! People fish them year round under a slip bobber. The nickle finish acts like a flash under water. The small weight of the pinmin gives stability to the hook yet it is easy for the fish to inhale. Tip with maggots, mealworms, or wax worms.

Also a I added some glitter to the paint job with the exception to the glow paint job.
