It's early spring and you are fishing in less than 2 feet of water. Visibility is 6" to 8", What size spinnerbait would you throw, what color skirt, and which blade combination and color blades? Personally I throw a 3/8 oz. colorado nickel front and a Indiana gold on the rear. I go back and forth with a black red flake skirt, and a coleslaw colored skirt. whats your favorite?

I like a 3/8 oz War Eagle in Sexy Mouse with a swimbait. Love the action of War Eagle but I hate how there is not a good bait keeper on the hook. I have to super glue the swimbiats on there so they last more than 2 fish

In that clear of water, I would have to have some wind to have any confidence. Id probably throw a swim jig instead. If I had to throw a spinnerbait, I have some that have a translucent skirt with an Indiana blade I would probably choose.

6-8 inches of water visability isn't all that clear to me. I would throw a white/chartruce or chartruce/orange spinner bait with a colorado front blade and a willow back blade both in gold if you can find that combo. My favorites are Booyah and War Eagle 3/8 oz. spinnerbaits.

I would hate to see the mudholes you are use too.
