Spring spinnerbait selection - 04/26/16 03:31 PM
If you never fish spinnerbaits you're really missing out on some great action. I've been experimenting with spinnerbait patterns and head shapes for various situations. Seems that, so far this year, the best results have been sunfish and crappie looking patterns. Blade combinations vary depending on lots of things...water color, light levels, etc. Anyway, here are a few pics of the patterns and skirts that are showing good results. All the heads pictured are 3/8 ounce. A couple are Santone spinnerbaits and the others are generic no name baits. All of them have been stripped and cleaned as per another post in this section.
I'll put the blades on with connections that make finding the right blade combo as quick and easy as possible. My goal is to have only a few spinnerbait weights and head styles that can be easily reconfigured to fit the needs of the moment using multiple skirt and blade combinations. End result...small tackle bag with lots of choices. If you got this far you probably fish spinnerbaits... so what's your favorite spinnerbait weight/color/skirt/blade combo?
