Bob,
I'm not sure what a "Tennessee Thumper" is, but I bet the Colorado
Willow is a turtleback. Could the "tennesse thumper" be a baseball bat?

I think I have broken Buckshot's code. I believe his message was:

"Spinnerbaits work well when you use a rod as stout as a Tennessee Thumper
baseball bat. I recommend a tandem Colorado/Willow blade combination on a
lure with a white head, a black-and-chartreuse skirt, and also a rattle.
This lure can be yo-yo'd slowly or swim it steadily on a fast or slow
retrieve. The 3/4-ounce size works best for me. I have had great success
with this bait on both lake or pond fishing. Would anyone like to discuss
this? If so, email me."

If that is right, then I'd say Buckshot probably has hit on an effective
spring spinnerbait pattern. I know many times my early spring spinnerbait
fishing is in muddy water, and a dark skirt like black with chartreuse
strands would be a good choice. The head color is probably less significant;
a spinnerbait is a reaction bait, mostly, and the bass probably responds
more to the movement of the blades and skirt.

I'd likely opt for a big, single CO blade on that 3/4 ounce lure rather than
the two-bladed setup so I could slow down the retrieve. A yo-yo retrieve is
very effective in very cold water; in fact, when I fish spinnerbaits from
November through Feb in thick cover, around cypress trees, laydowns, and
docks, I slow the lure down so much that I end up fishing it almost like a
jig sometimes.... letting it settle to the bottom, and then lifting it just
fast enough for the blade to emit a few thumps before it settles down again.
Unlike jigs, the spinnerbait must be moving, rising or dropping, for it to
be in position for a bass to grab it; I never had a bass pick a spinnerbait
up that was lying flat on the bottom of the lake; however, slow hops,
interspersed with rests, is a good way to get a bass curious and cause it to
grab the lure as it starts its next hop.
