[cool][#0000ff]Many/most spinner makers do not use a "bearing bead" above the clevice/blade. I have done them both with and without. [/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]I once had an old boy tell me that the top bead was good to have if you fished spinners upstream...that it helped the blade spin and flutter more while the current sweeps it downstream.[/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]I do very little stream fishing these days but I still keep adding that extra bead. They are cheap.[/#0000ff]
