Best Spinnerbait Rod

Nate Nipper reported catching Largemouth Bass using the Spinnerbaits technique and St. Croix Victory Casting Rods on Lake Minnetonka. Additional comments from this report: "Fall on Tonka is a great time for moving baits. Add some wind and there's nothing better than a spinnerbait. I like a bulkier swimbiat on the back in the fall to slow down the bait and bulk up the profile. Focus on the wind blown flats with better vegetation and you can really get into a pile of fish. Fun bite this time of year."

Eric Geesaman reported catching Largemouth Bass using the Spinnerbaits technique and St. Croix Victory Casting Rods on Powers Lake. Additional comments from this report: "Bass are on the outside of flats in the weed transition as the bluegill spawn. Working a spinner bait on the inside line has produced fish. "

Bass are still pre-spawn because of the long winter. As the weather warms up schools of shad are moving into shallow water among the lily pads that are starting to grow. White and shad color spinnerbaits are working well, especially in bright sunlight. Under cloudy skies and chocolate milk colored water more natural darker colors such as bluegill have been working also.

Michael Rekas reported catching Smallmouth Bass using the Spinnerbaits technique and St. Croix Mojo Bass Casting Rods - EOL on Pool 1 Mississippi. Additional comments from this report: "The smallies were crunching a spinnerbait this week. Fishing it around submerged brush, laydowns and rock produced numbers and good quality fish. Bites often came when bouncing the spinnerbait off this structure or giving it a couple pops in open water. Good luck!!"

Ben Korhonen reported catching Largemouth Bass using the Spinnerbaits technique and St. Croix Mojo Bass Casting Rods - EOL on North Long Lake. Additional comments from this report: "Finding the best green cabbage patches close to deep water produced the most bites and sometimes they would miss the spinnerbait so following up with the wacky rig produced a couple and actually the biggest of the day. "

Bass Pundit reported catching Largemouth Bass using the Spinnerbaits technique and Daiwa Tatula Series Casting Rods on Sullivan Lake. Additional comments from this report: "Fished for 3 and a half hours tonight until dark. I got one two pound bass right away on a point in Platte on the spinner bait and after that it was a pike fest. I spent the final two hours close to the reed edges on the NW of Sullivan. I got 3 bass on the Popping Frog and lost about 5; I was a little too keyed up to be at my best for frog fishing tonight. I caught 7 bass on the spinner bait. I got a 4lber on both the spinnerbait and frog. My best 6 bass weighed 18 lbs. I only got 3 pike in Sullivan."

Fun day targeting wind blown points and bays with spinnerbaits. Probably caught about 30 fish in a few hours. Most fish where caught between 6-10 feet of water where there was some weed growth on points or bays near points. Slower to medium retrieve with the bassman spinner bait was the ticket for me. Super fun day

Additional comments from this report: "High winds this day created a nice chunk to the wind blown shoreline. Big post spawn fish were up there looking for a meal. covering water with a spinnerbait was the best approach this day for my clients."
