Hi Tyler. The tube longevity is going to vary depending on use and care, but I think they hold up pretty well overall. If you are worried about them ripping and coming off then just use a painted lure body under the tube so that you will have a finished spinner if it does as you can't add a skirt tube again once it is off without rebuilding the spinner. The bodies I make myself and I have a whole tutorial video on it to show you how so I recommend that you go back and watch the first 3 parts of this 4 part series to get all the details, tips and tricks for making your own spinners and where I purchase the majority of my materials and why. I hope that helps. Thanks for watching and may God bless you!

@@thefrugalsportsman Good point. Thanks.

Worden Rooster Tails are very good spinners and are a good choice for catching fish. To answer your questions one of the reasons I believe for spinners failing to rotate could be that the bead between the spinner body and blade is either missing, flattened or worn. The blade needs to stay away from the body and not rub on it. One of two fine beads between the body and blade not only provides that space, but allows for minimal surface friction for the blade or blade clevis to ride on allowing it to spin more easily. Also the clevis could be bend down or twisted providing too much friction for it to turn easily. As far as renewing the shine there are a couple of things you could try. Try purchasing and using Tarn-x. It is a metal polisher that removes corrosion just by dipping in it. People use it for shinning up coins and silverware and it can be purchased on Amazon or at Home Depot for around $7.00. For an even cheaper alternative try a baking soda slurry made from the baking soda and a little water. use a fine piece of steel wool like 00 size to try and restore the shine. If all else fails you can purchase both Chrome and Gold Metallic paints and after cleaning up the blades just mask them off and give a coat or two of paint. I've used both these paints to restore some saltwater jigs where the Chrome plating has chipped off. They came out looking great again! Hope that helps. Thanks so much for watching and may God bless you!

@@thefrugalsportsman Thank you! You make excellent presentations with very little filler or stops and starts; clear, concise, and to the point.

When fishing a spinner the pull of the lure is in a straight line so you can attach the line directly without any negative effect to the action. I personally don't like to use any hardware like swivels or split rings on a lure unless it needs to work freely and has either an up and down or side to side action like a bucktail jig or a crankbait and I only tend to use hardware like an angler clip on the larger lures where it can't be noticed too well. For smaller crankbaits and such I feel a non slip loop knot (I have a video on tying that: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Y14a0B4alMA.html )allows the action without adding weight or distracting visually from the lure. It only takes a minute to cut off a spinner and tie on a new one and I don't change colors or weight size that much. Those are just my personal thoughts and I hope it helps answer your question. Thanks so much for watching and may God bless you!

@@thefrugalsportsman I only like them for changing dressed hooks or quick changing lures myself

I'm sorry I thought you were referring to using them for the line connection. Yes I I would and have used split rings for adding and changing out the hooks on the spinners they work slick. Especially if a hook breaks that has be fastened directly tot he wire shaft. I just cut the hook eye and add a split ring with my new hook. Thanks for the clarification! Take care and God bless!

Absolutely. A split ring would allow you to change hooks easily and can add more weight to the spinner if you want that. In using a split ring though there is a slight cost and added step. Therefore I attach the hooks directly to the shaft, but if a hook becomes damage I just cut it off and use a split ring to add on a new one! Hope that helps! Thanks for watching and God bless!

Thanks for answering my question. 👍Me and my Son & Daughter enjoy your videos.

@@thefrugalsportsman I was going to say the same thing. Especially if you are making bigger spinners. Here in the Pacific Northwest, generally if you buy a decent sized you'll need to swap out the treble for a single hook because of all the anadromous fish species & the associated rules.

Thanks so much and I appreciate the insight. Thanks too for watching and God bless!

No problem. Sorry It took me a bit to get back to you, but I didn't see you comment as it was under someone else. Thanks so much for taking the time to watch my videos as well. It is much appreciated! Take care and may God bless you all!

Sorry I don't have any for sale. You can probably find some on Ebay and I think Jann's netcraft carrys them. Hope that helps. Thanks so much for watching and may God bless you!

Hi Johan, I use the 1 1/2" crappie tubes that slip over the smaller lure bodies. You would have to go to the 2" for the larger bodies. I get mine from Rock Island Sports. I really like doing business with them. Here is a link for the tubes: rockislandsportsgov.com/rock-island-crappie-tubes-1-5-50-ct-lh-series/ I hope that helps! Thanks for watching and God bless!

@@thefrugalsportsman thank you very much! Just starting out making lures, really appreciate it 🙏

@@johangustafsson3499 You are more than welcome! I have some other lure making videos over on my homepage. You might want to check them out as they could be helpful to you! Thanks again for watching and God bless!

@@thefrugalsportsman I will definitely check them out!
