    Spinnerbait heads

    Anyone on here pour a banana head spinnerbait with heavier wire (.040-.045)? Just looking for 1/2-3/4 oz unpainted frames. Thanks in advance.

    Why the banana head preference? So many better choices as far as actually looking like "Food"

    I agree, but the banana head works well for "walking" down ledges and slow rolling over hard bottom. It deflects well off rocks while staying upright more than other spinnerbait heads.

    Night stalkers. I like the banana head shape for fishing riprap at night, and since I've been crafting my own spinnerbaits for a long time, I decided I might as well start making some after-dark baits.

    With small mold modifications, This will make a great mold for you... Has all the weight/sizes you would ever want, Looks great, and tracks super well in the water. If you are handy with a dremel tool. https://barlowstackle.com/Do-It-Pois...ig-Mold-P3410/

    Thanks for the info. I'm looking for heads already poured on wire frames (unbent and unpainted acceptable) since I do not pour lead.
