Take a good sized kitchen spoon, cut the handle off, leave just a stub of the handle and drill a whole through it for your leader and drill another hole at the other end for your treble hook..Leave silver if desired, or paint it..I made a few with my dad and left one silver and painted one with the red and white daredevil scheme. Caught a few pike on them on the St. Lawrence a few years back 8)
