Default SWL Spinner story (short)

Following the advice of so many on this group, I got ahold of a very nice
SWL spinnerbait with dual Indiana blades in gold and silver. The skirt is a
mix greenish-grayish and white. Sort of a bluegill-looking body. I believe
it is 5/16 oz. Very nice looking bait.

The weather turned quite cold with a front that moved through earlier today,
but I had a spare hour so I went out for just a bit to get the new bait wet
and check out it's action. In a stiff breeze, getting colder by the minute,
I nailed a 13" LMB on my second cast. Shortly thereafter, the weather got
worse and nothing else was biting, but it was a successful outing
nonetheless. A nice fish on my second cast! Thank you very much SWL. You
truely do make fine equipment and I am a fan for life!

This real beauty of this style is how slow you can actually retrieve it,
and still keep it up above the weeds. I caught a legal (landed 2 total)
in one hour before 4' waves ran me off. The on bad thing about this
lake, if you get a straight east wind, it is all over with on my side.

Chris, I agree completely with the ability to slow retrieve this lure. It
is easy to control.
