Below you can read the company info on Swedish Pimples. My own experience with his very old lure goes way back. Years ago in the Ely area, this was pretty much the lure to have for trout and walleyes and they were hard to find. The only color I ever saw as a kid was a chromed model. We'd tip it with a minnow and jig for walleyes.
What I didn't know was how they actually perform under water. Thanks to our heavy use of underwater cameras, I've found that Swedish Pimples are an ingenious lure. When you jig them upwards and let it back down (known as "pimpling" in Swedish), a Swedish Pimple lays on it's side briefly and makes the exact same flash of light that you see in those massive schools of minnow in the weed beds in the summer time. Lake shiners in Jasper will be swimming along by the thousands and scattered here and there in the massive school of baitfish, you'll see individual minnows flashing as they suddenly roll to the side. It's a quick flash and I don't know why they do it but I do know what happens when that brilliant flash of light shines out to predatory fish. Just like minnows, a Swedish Pimple blows its own cover when you jig it. That rolling flash gets hungry predators all worked up and they come rolling in. This I know because I watched it a zillion time on a Marcum VS 560 underwater camera. You can't believe what you learn when you can get right down next to the tackle and see what's happening! Lots of different colors to consider. Your tackle box whould have a smattering of sizes and colors. More info below:

The Swedish Pimple is a superb jigging lure. This type of lure has been widely used in Sweden for over 100 years with exceptional results on both fresh and salt-water fish. Jig it, summer or winter!
Their proven ability to take walleye, trout, Coho salmon, northern, bass, pan fish and many salt water species makes owning this lure a must for most fishermen. As a general rule the larger sizes are for game fish in deep water lakes.
The smaller sizes are for pan fish in shallow lakes; or trout, bass, etc. in rivers. All sizes will produce game fish and pan fish if both types inhabit the same waters. Ultra-lite and light action rods, with balanced reels spooled with 2 or 4 lb. Test line teamed with a Swedish Pimple, Vingla or Flute Spoon has brought many large pan fish to the dinner table.
Our smallest size Swedish Pimples, Vinglas and Flute Spoons with treble hooks that are tipped with a small minnow, wiggler or grub do well.
Often a perch eye on a single hook is a real producer of perch, crappie and stray walleye or white bass. The eye has a strong odor and is so tough; several hard bites will not remove it. If you miss a bite, you can often tease the fish into coming back for more because the bait is still on. When fishing for crappies, retrieve the Swedish Pimple, Vingla or Flute Spoon slowly by sunken timer brush or weeds. A #2WP Swedish Pimple with a single hook tipped with a white plastic grub is extremely effective for vertical jigging crappies by sunken docks or timbers or try a #2PS retrieved slowly for perch.
Use a #2, 3, 4 or 5 Swedish Pimple, Flute Spoon or Vingla for best results on pan fish and game fish in shallower waters. Used with a lift, fall and pause retrieve, they are good spinning spoons for all game and pan fish. To use as a spinning lure with a straight I or interrupted retrieve, reverse the location of the red flipper for more kick to the lure (i.e. remove the flipper and reinstall it on the flat side of the Pimple). A bonus Single Baiter Hook and Flipper is supplied with sizes 2,3 and 4.
The largest sizes are fast becoming favorite salt-water lures. Use a sharp lift and settle routine in your retrieve for the most erratic action to simulate the injured baitfish action most prize fish can't resist.
Larger size treble hooks can be installed to suit most needs without harming the action and attraction at the strike zone.
These fine lures, forged of solid brass are available in six lustrous metallic finishes in metal, eight prism colors, white pearl and three fluorescent colors.
