    Abstract: A twisted spinner blade with laser beam cut surface patterns is provided for use with fishing lures designed to be especially effective in bass fishing. The laser beam cuts that are shallow can have spacing consistent with cuttings running to a much as provided with approximately one hundred forty four thousand pictel cuts per inch. Such laser line surface pattern cuttings intensify reflected light and the cutting area prismatic effect generates a color spectrum reflection and a hologram like image on particles and plankton in the water as it is being moved in a spinning action through the water. This image effect generated around the spinner blade as it is spinning in water while being moved therethrough appears to bass (or other game fish) as a small fish such as a minnow would appear in more visible form.
