Im heading to Mexico soon and need some tough spinnerbaits that will hold up to a lot of fish. Any recomendations I would prefer tied skirts.

Just go with what YOU like to use, and get plenty of them.
God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; courage to change the things I can; and wisdom to know when to go fishing.

How 'bout Terminators with the Titanium wire? The ones I've used have never bent up.

I like using revenge spinnerbaits as well as custom ones from a site called BassCraft. Their spinnerbaits hold up exceptionally well. Plus they have lumaflex skirts which I believe attract more bass, or maybe it's just a confidence thing.

Talon lures Shibui Spinnerbaits uses a special wire that have held up well for me and they Wire wrap their skirts on to the body so they stay attached after heavy use. They are not my sponsor.. I just love their baits.

I like terminator, they dont bend. U may lose a blade occassionally after catching lots of fish. I really liked the way the h20 ran from academy, but one fish and the dang thing just fell apart.

Terminator T1, can't beat titanium for toughness. Plus it really catches 'em. Where in Mexico are you going?

You are going to MEXICO and your only worried about spinnerbaits, funny! Seriously, I heard one time the best spinners had a closed eye tie hole, reason being if you catch a really big bass it can straighten the wire causing the line to pull the blades off, losing all that was once attached to said spinnerbait. That being said I don't know where to find those at and have never had that happen to me; but I have never fished Mexico before either. GOOD LUCK

GOOD LUCK I had a Fork Mega Toad pull the body and skirt off the wire using 80# braid one night.. the knot never slipped off the R-bend. I got the wire and blade back.. the frame was still in the original 45deg bend. I've been fishing spinner baits since the early 60's when H&H was about all you could find and I have never had a bass pull the line up to the blade... never. That must have been some mighty soft or thin frame wire or they used a snap swivel on an R-bend?

It might have been some kind of marketing ploy to sell a certain kind of spinner, I heard this tale from a lure shop down at Falcon a couple years ago. Could've been B.S.!
