RE:Fish Creek Spinnerbaits
I picked up some more black hair at an alpaca show up in estes park. You want that black and white one or me to send you a picture of version two?
RE:Fish Creek Spinnerbaits
Why don't you just send me version 2, no photo, we'll give you a report. Nothing like goin' blind .... Heck, met my wife that way., Might be a heck of a lure......fishcreekspinners wrote:I picked up some more black hair at an alpaca show up in estes park.

RE:Fish Creek Spinnerbaits
Well, I finally got to try it out. It looks great in the water, although it failed to produce a fish. It was in good company though since only one lure in my tackle pail produced a fish. Fishing was slow at best. I gave the spinner it's fair time in the water, probably close to two hours casting it. Again, looks great. I did however cease to use it towards the end of the day. I would have kept using it, but the long willow blade came off. I am fairly certain it wore through the blade itself? The swivel is still there, and not broken at all. Either way, this lure did not have had a weed or fish on it in two hours casting. Maybe the willow leaf blade is too thin?

RE:Fish Creek Spinnerbaits
The blade was attached to the swivel with a light splitring. I'm guessing that the splitring was missing too? If so, I'll send you another blade with a heavier split ring. The gold blades are heavy and today cost about .75 cents each. I really doubht the hole wore through, but maybe.
RE:Fish Creek Spinnerbaits
Yep, split ring was gone too. Couldn't remember if there was one there or not. Maybe in the coming weekends I can get a better idea of how that spinner will work. For now, the Tigers weren't cooperating with anyone or anything on Curlew....

RE:Fish Creek Spinnerbaits
I sent a few replacement blades with heavier splitrings in a variety of colors. Also a couple of the large double super willow armadillos to get wet if you will try them. The trebles are dressed, they are catching muskies in NM.
RE:Fish Creek Spinnerbaits
Thanks much! I will get them wet as soon as I get them. Cheers!
