found at a garage sale
can't wait to try them, plumbing water line (copper, plated chrome) added 3 bb's inside, crimped on both ends,holes drilled, split ring and hook....maybe for the spanish,blues,lady fish ???
seems it could be made cheap .....weighs in at 1/2oz....could be adjusted with more or less bb's
a pic of 2 I got..... but might make a couple more for the trip....if you try it let us know if it works

Interstin!
The aforementioned would probably bite it.
I wonder how hydrodynamic they will be with that flat front lip though?
Perhaps behind a bubble rig??
Or perhaps a 1/4 or 1/3 ounce of lead in the frond end... hmmm(RETIRED) mostly.

I haven't tried them, just got them....but he said they used them for bass fishing up here....they all had weedless hooks on them....just throwing it out there as maybe something to try.....cheap ???
I am sure you could bend that front lip down some, for a diving action
I still will have the spear head jigs made cheap enough....just something else to loose to the toothy fish....they sure are hard on luresBill..............

Looks neato, I like homemade stuff.
I bet that they wiggle all over the place, no need to impart any extra action to them.
