Two bobber stops, one below the swivel and one above would solve the line weakening and sliding on casting problems.


Jig------bobber stop - bead - swivel - bead - bobber stop

Maybe better yet, just run the line through the swivel and then run a piece of rubber band through the eye and tie it to the line. No knots, stops or beads needed.

I'll be interested in reading, after you've had a chance to use this, whether you get many strikes on the spinner blade itself.

It just occurred to me that, in a state that allows multiple hooks on one line, one could tie in a small, lightweight inline spinner above the jig and hook fish that struck either target.

It should be similar to what happens when people fish a beetle spin. The blade serves as vibration and an attractant to get the fish closer. Then the fish see the lure offering and attack to eat that.
