Two baits in one. Fast or slow fall.
Yes you can fish it both ways vertical or horizontal It is designed to fish horizontal
Actually around 290.
Bob, I'm not big on skirted grubs though I know they are excellent for most bites. The higher the temperature I've found yellows light, translucent or clear colors faster which I prefer and I'm a stickler for true color especially when using fine glitter - and glitter in general - will fade faster at over 300 degree on the reheat. I don't sell lures so restocking or making lures in a large quantity for quick sales is not an issue.
I stopped using a spoon as a mold years ago though I still use a teaspoon (lure on the top) or tablespoon (one on the bottom) for topwater bass baits.

When the time is right for surface lures in weeds, bass clobber them! I do use silicone strands for the rear skirt which sways with every waddle and floating plastic.
For spoon minnows, I only needed a glossy floor tile held at angle pouring a wide area, cutting the minnow shape (box cutter blade at left) and dip the body three times. A lure I can always depend on regardless of season.

But as you well know they sell aluminum molds that do the same thing far faster and in different shapes and sizes depending on the mold:

Plus, I can always cut off the thin tail and attach it to a thin flat body using a candle flame. Thin flat bodies and tails used with very slow retrieves provide the action I prefer and especially under a float.
