Hold Spinner-bait
Take a hold of a spinner bait wire in order to make the molded lead head and hook easy to get to. -

Slide a Skit
Glide a skit over the point of the hook and then up onto shoulder formed beneath the jig head. Choose primary colors like orange and red for the spring fishing. Moreover, choose black or blue for deeper water and other color combination of your choice. -

Add in the Plastic Beads
Grasp the previous assembled spinner bait wire properly and carefully slide a red or orange plastic bead into it. Now push the bead down to the bend of the wire. -

Bring Together U-shaped Clevis
Pull together the u-shaped clevis through the center of hole, located at the tip of a willow spinner blade. Now pass the spinner bait through the holes at the tip of the U-shaped clevis and then slip the assembled blade down next to the plastic bead. -

Set the Metal Beads
It is the time to position the two colored metal beads on the wire right after the blade assembly. -

Form a U shape
Half inch beneath the two metal beads, shape a perfect U-shape in the spinner’s bait. Bring a pair of needle nose pliers into play in order to grasp the wire properly and then bend it gently and carefully in order to achieve an accurate U-shape. -

Form a Loop
Set a barrel swivel on the newly formed U -shaped twist of the wire and bend the free tip of the wire back to the main wire in order to form a loop all around it. Now bend the free tip of the wire all along the main wire to fix and secure it in one position. -
