I always love throwing this bait I just feel like I don't get the opportunity to throw it as much as I like. I know the basics of where and when to throw it , shad spawn, overcast & windy conditions, prespawn etc. Just curious when do y'all throw it and how often?

I don't throw it near as much as I should, spring mainly for me.

Every trip, regardless of time of year. There are probably at least 30 different baits in my box and I have another small box that holds blades and other parts so that I can change it up as I think I need to.

Usually have one on the deck. Don't rule out those big ole 1 oz spinnerbaits on the lakes that fish deeper this time of year, slowrolling a big blade can load the boat!

Like others have said, I always have one on the deck, and fish it every time I'm on the water.

Any time I feel like I can get a reaction strike or keep it in the zone where fish are. Some years it's a whole lot and some it's hardly at all

Windy/cloudy and,or muddy/murky I'm throwing it.
Lakes where there's lots of open areas with sparse cover and bass herding baitfish.
Some lakes it's all I throw, and there's other lakes(usually very clear lakes) where I can't buy a bite on one.

Always tied on and it gets used every trip! Hit every piece of cover I can see and then sometimes just throwing in between targets to cover water. I keep it simple mainly using a 2 willowleaf blade combo and just carry a few different color skirts to match bream or shad whatever I am seeing the most of. And I always use a trailer hook!!

I throw one year round. It's my favorite bait to throw and if I can catch fish on it, then I won't put it down. I know that's bad but that's the way I'm wired. Haha.

I used to always have one tied on but I have gotten into the chatterbait and swim jig lately and all have produced. I have caught 3 around 6 lbs in the last couple of months. Caught a 6 on a white spinner bait, a 5.13 on a chatterbait and a 5.12 on a swim jig.

Every trip. My favorites are grass edges and through scattered grass and where it shines the most for me is wind blown grass banks, points, edges. It's hard fishing sometimes with the wind blowing you in like that but I've had some great days. The shallow anchors have made that so much easier that I can't use words to describe how awesome they are in those situations.

Any time I'm fishing less than 5ft one is tied on. Never really used them out deep much but just don't seem to get chance to really utilize them that way
