they look good. Have you considered adding a bit of colored tubing on the shank of the hook? Or, use a bit of lure tape on the blade for color.

Nice looking spinners. What size are they ? Do you plan to use them on steelhead ?

looking good. I love making gear.
Re: First post, some spinners i made.
I bought a it of cabelas as a kit, bodies were 7/16" and spinners were size 2-6 I plan to use them on trout, hopefully steelhead, I live in Indiana, and only visit WA in the summer, but no one uses spinners in the Midwest, so i figured here would be a better place to ask.
Thanks Josiah

Re: First post, some spinners i made.
one of my best colors. like how the inline spinner works. I prefer single hooks and put red, orange or pink tubing on the hook shanks. gold and silver are my other prefered colors.

If you want to paint them, use finger nail polish its cheep. I just snatch my Girlfriends or my sisters, so its more or less free! Those are looking great. I am a big fan of making your own lures, I like to save up my morn out rubbers and make all kinds of jigs and spinners n such

I got some oil-based paint sharpies and tried painting them.

I like your spinners Rock10...I make my own as well. Perhaps it is nearing time for another WALAKES Spinner Swap.

I'm all for it, i buy the crappie tubes kits that have all different colors, and cut the tip off and put them on the treble hook, only last a few fish, but when they fall off i just tie some hackle on. I have a pink, red and blue ones in that picture.

Ive had a lot of fun with the cabelas spinner kit, although I prefer the french blades. Size 1 all nickel absolutely slays trout!
