[cool][#0000ff]Most hardware stores and building supply places sell "metal tarnish remover" in small cans. That helps clean and polish tarnished spinners and spoons. But, as Coldfooter pointed out, you should be sure the hooks are replaced if they are rusty. Can't restore a rusty hook.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]You CAN put a piece of worm on a spinner hook, and sometimes that really helps. But, you would be surprised at how fish whack spinners and lures without any extra added attraction.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]Another bait that works well for the sunfish and perch in Mantua is mealworms. They are available and inexpensive at pet shops, like Petco. Keep them in the refrigerator between trips and they keep well. Use a small piece on the tip of a jig...or a whole one on a plain hook. All the fish like them.[/#0000ff]
