Long thin blades
Are they OK in stillwater ? I mean , do they not spin or sink or something ?

Long thin blades might need more of a jerk to start spinning, then they'll either run deeper at the same speed as a wider blade, or fish faster at the same depth as they have less lift.

Re: Zebco Waterwings Spinner For Rivers
Another plus for the spinnerbait arms I've recommended, is that you swap both the blades and jigheads / weights (cheaply!), to vary presentations; eg smaller / narrower blades and heavier jigs, to run deeper / faster. For pike and perch in winter, I usually favour slow near the bottom. Upturned singles snag less than inline trebles then, too.
