DIY Mini Propeller Jig

I have been on a wire bending craze lately and I ran into this bass lure I saw (depicted within the video) and I was like, I gotta have it for crappie fishing! I fish a lot in shallow lakes and I can see this lure pulling in some nice slabs!

I hope you guys like this video and give this lure a try. I will be fishing it very soon as Ice is melted and just waiting for the water to warm up. If you have any suggestions on how to improve on this, let me know :)

Oh wow....that would work great with a Pico Ringed Scent Ring Tube on it doused with Slab Sauce. Attachment 333077

looks great, probably a good trolling bait

smaller one would probably be good for the bluegill too

I was thinking more of grubtails and swimbaits but that might work. I am sure the slab sauce would be good too!

That would be interesting. I wonder if trolling it too fast would make it turn over.

I did some what I call in-line-spinner jigs and here is a picture of one color. I did catch crappie on these the first year I made them which was 2013.

I believe these were 1/16 Oz and probably could be done on 1/32 as I have two sizes of propellers, I guess it just depends on what size you want and how small they make the propellers? I have to check what size I bought and what size they make if you want just tell me.

Checked and they two small sizes they make are #0 and #1. These are the ones I have and the also make a #2 that I didn't buy.
