Let’s see if they work as good as Ol Hank says.

Never heard of them.....

I bought some War Eagle spinbaits last month and I was impressed with their quality and performance so I ordered a few more of them and some Booyah as well the other day.

I am looking forward to getting back to my roots of spinning….even though it’s not a spinning rod or inline spinner but it’s just a style I’ve enjoyed for many many years and miss.

I see them at Gouldsboro being tossed during tournaments. I use the tinier version , beetlespins, all summer, with 2,3,and 4” Kietecks shiners. Put willow blade onto a couple and it doesn’t seem better or worse.

My salmon rod is a fish eagle. I am very impressed with the quality of it, especially for the price.

Blades per retrieval rate Colorado slow,Indian little faster,willow faster yet I should say that it not necessarily the retrieval rate but what rate the blade spins to a consistent rotation

I am entertaining that. I need to use them a season and find what I like. I did some test casts with the Booyah Pond Magic in 3/16 ounce on my lighter bait caster, I am in heaven!

I quickly realized it’s not worth trying to bend the standard spinner bait forms my self but getting crazy and making your own stuff is always aloud

I probably wouldn’t go that deep into it. I could buy the heads / wire already bent and just add blades and skirts to my liking. Save a few bucks over buying already made.

Willow is the fastest

Yep, I have been learning that. It will be interesting to see how the Bass respond one trip over the next in both blade size and speed.

Double willows and keep them moving from mid Oct til the water gets below 45 Single BIG Colorado all summer at night, slow n steady!

Good advice. Thank you. What would be your goto at this point of the year? With water temps currently around 49 and a soft bite, I’m thinking slow with colorado.

My thoughts are change over to willow or double willow once the bass get shallow and pretty much ride that through fall.

I dont throw a spinnerbait often until about 55*. Always jerkbaits and in recent years added swimbaits when its cold. Last several years I dont really fish for bass til almost July. Panfish now, walleyes n stripers soon.

I do like swimbaits, they have been my early season goto since I started bass fishing as it was something I could relate to due to early spring striper fishing on the bay. They ended up working for me and I have stuck with them since.
