Hi any suggestions on a spinnerbait that works with a steady slow
retrieve?
Blade style size color?
The avg size I catch is 13"-14" I use 9' light rod with 8lb PP so want
to use a smallish spinnerbait
I bought this Culprit one but the blade doesnt spin at all at slow
speed.

Though when I give it a jerk the blade spins well.
Lastly is Culprit a good brand?

Thanks
Ray

My news server is havign problems so I hope you get this reply.

There are several variables to this equation.

Do you want to buy some top dollar blades? An SWL pro kit might be the
ticket. This allows you to adjust the bait easily on the fly until you get
just what you want.

However, if you don't have the cash there are some things you can do. Any
standard cheap spinner bait can have the blades swapped around with a pair
of pliers. Iaconnelli likes to throw a large body spinnerbait with willow
blades two sizes smaller than standard according to his column in Bassin'
Magazine.

If I'm getting some hits when the bait is falling I have slid a worm weight
on the line in front of the blade bait. This gives a distinct nose down
fall and allows for slow rolling down deep. Another trick I have seen is to
take the rubber core out of a rubber core sinker and crimp it around the
lower wire of the bait. This makes for a heavier bait with a more
conventional fall.

Like I said, "There are several variables to this equation," and I'm not
sure we can answer your question thoroughyl without having a better
definition of what you are trying to achieve.
