    Those spike tails are one of my favorite designs ! Nice color too.
    The fork tail reminds me of my claw tail design. Fish jump on it also.

    On those fork tails I was double dipping then in clear silver glitter to imitate scales.

    An easier way is to use Mend-It glue for soft plastics, though maybe superglue might work. Bush the glue where you want it and press or roll the lure on glitter sprinkled on a flat surface such as a paper plate. (note: craft glitter works fine - I have a bottle that has 4 iridescent colors). The glitter on the surface flashes a bit more than in the plastic but in either case fish do notice subtle flash from a distance.

    (note - IMO fish don't interpret glitter as anything .)

    Can't believe it took so long to find a use for Mend-It (it doesn't work for crap to mend torn baits).
    The craw claw came from a craw worm used for bass. Cut it off with a box cutter blade and attached it with a candle flame
    to a grub body. It's one of the favorite designs that catches all species. Give the method a try on other plastics you don't use but find
    parts useful. You never know .......
