Caught my first spinnerbait fish yesterday. Would not have thrown this lure if not for a recent work trip to Fayetteville, AR. Just don't have confidence in it. Walk into Tilted Kilt to get some dinner. (First time in one of those mighty fine establishments) Sit down at the bar and start chatting with the guy next to me. Find out he is an experienced bass angler. His name was Doug King. I am picking his brain for an hour or so drinking cold ones. I remember him saying something like he likes throwing spinners when their is wind. Well yesterday was lots of wind. Chunk it out there and a couple casts later land this real light colored one. I was stoked. Gonna have to toss it more now!!

Cranking in the wind. Got it. I always throw cranks around these rocks. All EM guys know these rocks.
Wish I knew a secret spot. If you want to share a secret spot PM me....:)

I bought my first spinner today -- white/chartreuse War Eagle. Can't wait to give it a try.

I dislike throwing the spinnerbait myself but I do because I feel as if I don't I may go to fish hell for not trying
