spinner bait
#15
Lots of ways to use a spinner bait.

In heavy cover you can slow roll it over stumps and limbs in timber. You cast let it sink and then reel very slow until you feel the bump of it hitting the structure then slowly reel it over the structure and then LET IT FALL all the way back to the bottom. Most of your hits are when you hit the structure or during the fall after you "slow roll" it up and over.

You can yo-yo it slow off the bottom. Just let it sink then pull your rod from straight ahead of you to 12 oclock "until your rod tip is over your head" then let it fall back to bottom and repeat. Very slowly and finesse.

You can let it sink to bottom and then twitch it until you feel the vibration of the blades and reel it as slowly as possible along the bottom with a few twitches every few seconds

You can cast and then begin reeling at a moderate speed which will let the bait run at its medium depth.

You can cast and then begin reeling fast where the spinner bait is just under the water. You should see a ripple at the waters surface just above the spinner bait.

Each of these techniques work at different times under different conditions.

colors? Where that's a whole new post and would take a lot time to be precise but I will give you the basics.

Clear water: Colorful .. very colorful, try to use colors that mimic the local baitfish but more flashy.

Dirty water: Black and White.
