How To Make Your Own INLINE TROUT SPINNERS (easy!)

[@FishHawk]

Who else is ready for some Trout fishing!?!

[@rapidoutdoors4830]

Fish Hawk me I haven’t went all year

[@propredatorfishing5447]

Fish Hawk yeah!!!!

[@luiscontreras5206]

Fish Hawk hey can you let us know how strong is that wire that you use it for spinner does it have like a test pound something cuz I'm trying to make a spinner for saltwater fishing and what will be a wire good enough that will allow me to know what is the strength of the wire itself

[@JM-bb8xi]

It's that time of year again!

[@scycosnake3964]

Exactly why my dad started, he wanted to feel good he made something that could catch fish, just his own design, he didnt even intend on a business

[@fincityfishing5490]

The split ring makes sense i also feel like it has a bit more play to move and I like that

[@rasmusmadsen7973]

i made a working spinning lure from a paperclip, a soviner from london eye (you know theese things that are made from pressing a penny) and some pearls and some wire. Now that is an actual diy spinning lure

[@FishHawk]

that's cool!

[@rasmusmadsen7973]

Thanks you😃 yours too

[@southerntiersteelie3571]

Hemmed and hawed on doing something like this. Thanks Fish Hawk. You made it look easy.

[@norabder1008]

Exactly what I needed!!! Thank you for taking your time to make this video. The split ring idea is great!!! I bought a kit on Amazon and I am getting ready to make some lures!!!

[@pikeevans8559]

Great video. A couple of minor pointers....If you use your regular needle nose pliers and hold the loop you made so that the tag end you bend around the shaft is parallel to....and against the pliers, that will keep your loop nice and round and I find it makes it easier to get a nice tight wrap as well. Then as you add the split ring on you can also add the treble hook at the same time and save a step. Hope I explained that Ok. Good luck with the trout fishing.

[@FishHawk]

Thank you! :)

[@aferg1986]

I see the WV hat! My family is in Webster county! Great video!

[@Knotrockets]

Hey fishhawk fishgrub spinners has a kit on eBay pretty sweet.

[@FishHawk]

Awesome! Might have to check it out!

[@JM-bb8xi]

I've been trying flies and such for 2-3 years now. Rapala makes an ok set of pliers but I got mine from harbor freight for a lot less.

[@mikeseals4500]

Been fly fishing most of my life but now with your video I am eager to start spinner fishing instead....great video "thanks"...

[@FishHawk]

Nice! I've only been spinner fishing but I'm thinking about getting into fly fishing. Thanks for watching!

[@RobKoch]

Very helpful and enjoyble! Thank you very much! there is only one thing that i love more then fishing that is a crafting some useful things!

[@urbanwolf6419]

Thanks for this. I will be ordering the parts with the links provided, something me and my 8 year old grandson can do together on a rainy day.

[@FishHawk]

That's great! Start them young. Thanks for watching!

[@aarontalks8440]

This is a super cool video! The face when you slide the bead on made me laugh though. The hand on chin exaggerated movement just cracked me up! Great demo!!

[@FishHawk]

LOL that's hilarious 😂 thanks man! I appreciate it!

[@JM-bb8xi]

Happy to see the WVU hat. I'm a SW PA native near the WV border, moved to the Pacific northwest and got into kokanee fishing. Don't trust the locals here when it comes to DIY projects (west coasters am I right?). Gave this a shot and I have the best spinners on the water here. Good ol boys get it done!

[@evanbowen4221]

Very helpful thanks for the video tips

[@theschmerbs435]

Man I can’t wait to go fishing 🎣 ..this video is what’s it’s all about great job sir..

[@FishHawk]

Thanks man! Good luck out there!

[@darthnixster5970]

Planning a trip in April. Maybe we’ll see you on the Cherry or Cranberry

[@rockytalkndawoods3057]

If you live in a city with a "Fisherman's Marine and outdoor" you can pick up supplies for lures. And you can custom pic your colors and sizes in the store. Good video!

[@rockytalkndawoods3057]

For me it's hard to picture sizes and fractional ounces on the interweb so seeing them in person really helps.

[@zilvinasjurevicius2227]

hey,from where you buy those things?

[@Wantedspark10]

Thank you so much. This was so helpful. Me and my friend are gonna start making our own and selling them

[@FishHawk]

Awesome! Glad it helped. Good luck!

[@sgtpavlov]

Nice lure building,spinners are one of the lures I love to build too. With those closed loop wire forms,I typically use the closed end as the bottom,where you attach the split ring and hook. I like to attach a barrel swivel to the top,when closing the wire,for eliminating line twist. I like using single siwash hooks instead of trebles,as it's annoying to get out all 3 hook points from a fishes face,and a single hook doesn't damage the fish as much. With the inline blades like on panther martins,you don't need a clevis.

[@FishHawk]

sgtpavlov sounds great! Thanks for the info and tips! I am going to look into those siwash hooks.

[@JoonMatthew]

Swivel is a lifesaver

[@27swampfox]

Hello what web site did u go to to purchase this stuff I’m very interested ty

[@tylerorito9113]

Awesome video can't wait for more trout videos you should also do a budget trout fishing video and you should try to make your own power bait keep it up almost 2000k

[@FishHawk]

Good ideas! Thanks for watching!

[@gregdimeolo9558]

Great video .very helpful

[@chrisbajema8002]

Thanks for the info going online cause this loss in lures is hurtin the pockets. Taking pride sounds good

[@FishHawk]

For sure!

[@randyr6610]

Hell thanks for showing me the split ring I was doing it the hard way.

[@FishHawk]

No prob! Thanks for watching!

[@scuba6797]

This looks fun!

[@deepsouthNZ]

great job mate you made it look real easy.

[@westparkguy1104]

[@pescandotesoros]

easy job bro thanks for the video.

[@drifteroutdoors]

Great video, just what I was trying to figure out.

[@FishHawk]

Thank you!

[@josephspano3126]

[@nicholassturms5308]

Wv fishing is like no other fishing because theirs so many species of of different body's of water such as lakes resewars rivers ponds streams and you can catch so much fish all year round

[@hdayan1945]

Good job.

[@joshuavanscoyk9404]

Thanks man can’t wait to build mine for this upcoming fall season. Could you please make a guide or something to show what parts make what size spinner. Like 1/32oz, 1/16, 1/8 etc.

[@FishHawk]

[@Dream-lx8nx]

Wow thanks! it really helped!

[@acexiong4749]

What website can I get the parts to create my own?

[@WaynJul]

Turned out really nice. I like making lures to.

[@FishHawk]

Thanks! It's a lot of fun! What kind do you make?

[@WaynJul]

Some top water balsa wood lures, I like experimenting with different spinners on different lures. Aloso experimenting with a combo spinner/jerk bait combo. Also DIY gold spoon.

[@FishHawk]

Sounds awesome! The balsa wood lures would be a lot of fun. Might have to try them out sometime.

BEST FISHING KZbinR EVER!

[@ronuhlenhopp9368]

I recently began building inline spinners for stream trout fishing. I highly recommend the Twistech wire bender! It will save your fingers, is time efficient, and produces professional inline spinners every time. I found this wire bender difficult to find in stock. I compared the TwisTech to many other wire benders with the TwisTech the clear winner. Before I bought the professional wire bender, I became very proficient building the inline spinners with an assortment of cutters, wire bending pliers, serrated and non-serrated pliers, and wire bending dental pliers. This experience has led me to appreciate the TwisTech, for one can build spinners in about a minute with consistent, professional results with no stress on your fingers. I de-barb all of my hooks and have learned that open-eye Siwash single hooks are the very best for cathch and release fishing. I pinch the barbs flat, enjoy quick releases leaving the fish in the water, with no danger of removing the protective slime, squeezing the fishes organs, gill hooking, tongue hooking, or foul hooking the trout. I also have learned that there is no difference in hooking and landing the trout consistently. I have learned that it is also quite important to avoid too large hooks depending on the size and species of trout in the stream or river. I've enjoyed your videos and look forward to more. Ron, NE Iowa.

[@FishHawk]

Thanks for the comment Ron. I actually own a TwisTech wire bender and I agree with you. They are amazing tools!

[@richiekaylor5004]

Since were in quarantine you should repost old videos like this bc im bored as hell but packages will still come

[@pacificblui3711]

Thanks this was a help

[@scottoleary9374]

Very helpful and entertaining

[@FishHawk]

Happy to hear it! Thanks for watching!

[@stephensever5630]

Any idea in cost per lure to make these? I’m going to make these either way just curious if I can justify it by cost savings lol

[@Rogerio51]

Looks like fun!

[@christopherharpster9330]

I wonder if you could pick up parts for these at like Hobbie Lobby or other craft stores?

[@TurboK24z]

Is it cheaper to make these with that kit or buying them at walmart? And if so buy how much?

[@Wantedspark10]

im gonna start making my own lures and start selling them!!!!!!!

[@calebcook1791]

You should really get a mtb trout edition. I got one and I don't regret it.lol

[@FishHawk]

I might try it some day

[@calebcook1791]

Really recommend

[@troyposas4732]

How many split rings went flying?

[@trystenruiz3012]

Hey bud i make flies for bluegill and bass can also fo catfish

[@FishHawk]

That's awesome!

[@Jredding352]

That’s nice good job!

[@FishHawk]

Thanks bud!

[@matthewnelson7129]

I never thought about making my own trout spinners. This is definitely a cheaper route than buying them in store. I do have a few questions: 1) Did you catch any trout on the lures that you made? 2) Do you feel it caught similar amount of trout as the store bought ones? 3) Have you, or anyone that you know, ever tried painting them with "lure paint"? I ask the third question because I live in Colorado and the fish generally hit Red colored spinners and Red colored bodies are not as easy to find in mass quantities online.

[@FishHawk]

Honestly, I haven't fished with them very much. I will start using them more often this coming winter/spring. I assume they will catch the same amount of fish. I don't think there will be any difference in performance. I have not tried painting them but I'm sure you could. I believe you can buy plain un-painted lure bodies.

[@MegaNafo]

nice job

[@rynodynomyte2755]

Awesome buddy!

[@FishHawk]

Thanks buddy!

[@rynodynomyte2755]

Your welcome!

[@dave8456]

What really is being practical, would be the question? I have a hard time not wanting to build things. Bury myself into all sorts of hobbies. Problem with lures, unless you are going to sell them. Or one is just careless and loose them all the time. Sure! It truly sucks to fork out $4 - $8 for a single lure. BUT! When one has to buy, 50-100' of wire, 50-100 spinner blades, 100-200 spinner clevises, 50-100 weight's/ bodies, 50-100 hooks, beads and the remaining frills. One can build up a lot of lures indeed. Lots of money invested. Problem comes with what do you do with all of them. I have 2 of my very favorites. Use them mostly every time fishing, and fishing fairly often. I have had my 2 for 40 years. I did just purchase another one. Due to fresh paint and shiner spinner. Although it really wasn't at all necessary. I did have to re-tie some fresh bucktail on my older ones. Even that wasn't totally necessary. This same spinner can be purchased without bucktail. Maybe the fish don't care. I caught them on both bare hook spinners, just as bucktail ones. Who it the bucktail for????? Me or the fish???? It doesn't seem it's for the fish. Lots of new gimmicks out there today. Mostly expensive ones. I guess the fish also didn't get the memo, that they are supposed to quit biting the old vintage style spinners. Put all focus on new style High $$$$ ones. It seems the fish still don't care!

[@franciscomunoz9294]

Donde puedo xomprar las piezas .gracias

[@NetSurfer-dn8ui]

you should post a link with the individual parts

[@benmwv]

Think there will be much difference from not having the bundle of hair covering the hook? Maybe you could do a face off of your lures vs rooster tails once you get on the trout

[@benmwv]

I dont think it would be hard to add that to your homemade lures tho. Just get a fly vice and a wrapping tool

[@FishHawk]

I thought about that. I tried buying dressed treble hooks that had the hair on them already. Then I thought about adding it on my own. I could try doing a face off to see if it makes a difference. I think it would be tough though.

[@FishHawk]

I might look into that. I do really like the added hair. I think it gives it a little something extra.

[@rapidoutdoors4830]

If you do more minnow trapping videos can you try cheese and garlic plz

[@IncognitoRS]

Hey man, I've been wanting to know where to find that color of inline spinner BODY. I can't find them anywhere. Just wanting to make my own white rooster tails but I can't find that style really anywhere in stock.. Any suggestions?

[@OleHickory69]

Lure paint.

[@stacyray6549]

what’s the weight of the one you just made you thing?

[@sawyer_3759]

I make these a lot. What can I use these to catch? I don’t fish trout. Anything else bite them?

[@FishHawk]

for sure. today I caught crappie, bluegill and largemouth bass on an inline spinner :)

[@sawyer_3759]

Fish Hawk nice! Thanks

[@mystiquelove4793]

But is it cheaper then buying the non completes then the complete rostertails

[@FishHawk]

The initial cost is higher. I spent $31 on all the parts. But it will make about 20 spinners. That comes out to $1.55 per spinner. You could do it cheaper if you got some cheaper parts. I bought some nice Berkley Fusion hooks. That was the most expensive part.

[@redbeardthepink4809]

1000th like w00t!

[@timothythompson2678]

I saw in one of the comments below that you had a cost of $1.55 per spinner. That's like half of what a roostertail would normally cost. I'll bookmark that website. I lose a lot of roostertails. And midwest finesse jigs. There are molds available for those, but it's a higher initial cost. You have to get a melting pot and lead, plus hooks on top of the mold.

[@FishHawk]

Yeah man! Definitely more cost effective. Like you said, just that higher initial cost but in the long run it's much cheaper.

[@Elrond_Hubbard1]

@@FishHawk Nice video, I almost exclusively use rooster tails and always wanted to make my own. If the loops in the wire aren't straight, do they track funky? Or the blades stick?

[@FishHawk]

@@Elrond_Hubbard1 if the loop for the hook isn't perfect it shouldn't impact the performance. As long as the main shaft stays straight.

[@rapidoutdoors4830]

Almost a 2000 subs

[@haroonrashid7229]

This is just assembling of a spinner. Can't you make a spinner with household things?

[@FishHawk]

True. You can make one from household items. I may do that in a future video. Thanks for watching!

[@michaelramsey4920]

So now make a couple more in different colors, and do a video testing them out.

I didnt like this video because you were never close enough to your product for me to figure out what you were making. You lost me at clevis and never got me back. I was so disappointing because I wanted to see how to make them. Get right up against it next time!

[@l3athalsubzero649]

Im pretty convinced spinners, dont catch fish. Scam, for fishers to waste money.

Huh? lol I catch all my trout on spinners. Check out some of my other videos. Spinners are not a scam, they catch fish.

[@l3athalsubzero649]

@@FishHawkmaybe its just the rivers or areas i fish. But the fish here dont really bite them. I fished countless 10hours days all this summer. Using spinn bait. The amount of time i spent messing with those useless things, i could have caught so much more fish with baiting. But instead for all my hard work i caught 1 fish. Like i said maybe its just where im at and the fish dont really seem to touch spinners here. Or at least for me.

[@FishHawk]

@@l3athalsubzero649 I understand where you're comin from. What part of the world do you fish? Here in the eastern United States they work great. Some baits just don't work everywhere. You probably have baits/lures that don't work well in my area.
