Which one do you guys like? Had some success on little georges and thought I'd try the revenge tail spinner. Just got them and tried them in the pool and their fall is terrible. The lure just spirals down while the tail barely spins. Any idea how I can get it to work? Lost cause?

Bucky, since you have a pool and can see the lures drop, why not experiment with different size (and shape) spinners? I think I will try that with my Little Georges.

Yep, but I was thinking I'd rather experiment on the lake tomorrow!

I don't know the brand name, but SW parts & Service sells the best there is. What makes it so good is that the tail spins and vibrates on the fall while it's sinking AND with each tiny twitch!
You gotta really give Lil' Georges a strong jerk to get their tails spinning, not with these baits. The colors are awesome, too.
I'll see if I can find a package in the garage and I'll post the name, unless somebody else can help us here.

An excellent fall-season bait because it's heavy, gets to the bottom quickly and resembles the dying shad. Mr Mann's 1 oz George Wallace in chrome for me.
Another somewhat over looked killer is the 1/2 oz Heddon Sonar.

I usually place a one hour moratorium on my hatred of the Ags after a loss! Once the one hour is over, my blind faith officially kicks back in and I'm good to go! LOL

Rinky Dinks are much better tail spinners than Little George baits. They are a little more difficult to find but they spin well on the fall and catch fish.

Personal best Largemouth for Lewisville was "hopping" a Little George down the rocky steep bank that makes up the old dam between Lewisville and the old Lake Dallas in winter. Do not know what posessed me to fish that way then and why i don't try it more often now. I never learn!
