The bait has to be straight on the hook - any bends or if the hook is not
centered, the bait will spin. You also have to work the bait with your rod
tip.

What Ronnie said...It has to be rigged perfectly straight and
centered. It may not be as critical with a wider bodied bait like a
Bass Assassin, but I know with Fin-S Fish the things have to be dang
near perfect. However, powering the twitches and jerks just right can
compensate for a slightly off center rigging. You can also try a belly
weight to help keel it.
