    A single Colorado blade slow rolled in shallow dirty water around wood or rock works great. Thanks for the spinner bait tips Matt.

    Your explanation of the two different blade types was right on. Spinnerbait is my go to bait just about every time I hit the water. I carry about 50 of them on a rack on the inside of my rod locker lid.
    Over 20 years ago, I attended a BASS U. seminar on spinnerbait fishing by the late great Ken Cook. He broke down the relationship between blade type and size….head weight….target depth….and retrieve speed. It really open up a whole world of different ways to effectively fish spinnerbaits. I’ve talked to guys that say they never catch anything on a spinnerbait and sometimes I feel like I can’t catch them on anything else. 😉

    Matt , i fish the colorado blade strike king spinner bait and really love it because it has the tendency to bring bait fish to the surface , Well last monday on the 10th i was at bass pro shop and a employee told me that fishing coffe cream color water to fire out the spinnerbait you were holding at 7:00 and after watching you sir i now not only know i made a dang good decision listening to the guy at bass pro shop but i also want to go to academy and get couple more the colorado and willow leaf spinnerbait and i also have been absolutely dieing to try out my new 3/16th oz willow leaf and colorado blade. Matt , i would like to say thank you for the time you invest in making these videos i mean in the last few weeks i have learned so much from just watching you then i ever have could inside an actual school classroom , i mean you make learning about fishing so much fun and enjoyable then a actual school classroom.

    Matt, I made a "line through" Swimbait after seeing your video on it the other day. I used a 5" Megabass Spark shad purchased at a local bait store. The owner had not heard of it, but thought it was a great idea. Wants to see finished product. Anyway, it came out well and I enjoyed making it. I think it will catch fish; Maybe that lake monster! I will give you more feedback if I catch something on it.

    Spinnerbait has always been my confidence bait. I got really into them in the early to mid 90's. I like war eagles and nichols and strike kings. Booyah has a few good ones as well I love to throw quarter ounce ones when the bite gets tough it usually works. Good video.

  • @academicmailbox7798

    Frank Scalish did a lesson back in October of 2020. Talking about setting up one's bass boat. In order to drive on water (he sets it up, not for calm water conditions, but rougher waves and such). Encountered in bass competition.

    • @academicmailbox7798
      @academicmailbox7798 2 роки тому

      Matt, Jeffreys and Frank. Go through the various options. Between the three blade, four blade and five blade options (five blade relate to other boat types, however he explained it is possible to obtain smaller diameter prop units). Which can work in bass boat angling situations. Matt arrived at the analogy. That perhaps the three blade option. Was akin to cruising gears in automobiles. One does not have much power available, but okay for straight cruise driving. Compared to the five blade option. That works best to orient boats in restricted room (such as trying to orientate oneself in the trough between two waves for example).

    • @academicmailbox7798
      @academicmailbox7798 2 роки тому

      The key engineering term that they came up with, used by a lot of the propellor shop engineers. Was hydraulic slippage. Where the blades that offered most slippage (such as the three blade options). Took the longest time to react. Upon doing something to engine power, or steering. Or whatever control intervention is done by the boat driver. Clearing in the case of these spinner bait blade options. A similar thing is happening. Whereby, the more blades that are acquired by these baits. The less slippage it enables those baits to have. The trade off being. That it also enables the angler. To manipulate the bait more. When working at shorter distances.

    • @academicmailbox7798
      @academicmailbox7798 2 роки тому

      In other words. What we are saying (subject to the greater expertise of the local prop shop engineering assessment). These spinner baits and lures. With additional blades. Could be useful for throwing. Around various kinds of structure. The backs of creeks. The places where one is trying to work down. To the smaller scale. The angler can benefit maybe. From having increased control over the bait (although, as Frank admits, by the time you get to five blade propellor units). These may not be the fastest in the world. Compared to the four. Or the three blade.

    • @academicmailbox7798
      @academicmailbox7798 2 роки тому

      What I would like to see though. Are some of the bass anglers. Taking some of those exceptionally large (for deep spoon fishing), metal spoons. And simply chopping some of those in half. Why? Because one thing those deep spoon fishing baits have. Is an angle of curvature to them. That one does not often find. In the usual one ounce, or half ounce bass spoons. I looked at the angle of curvature of some of them. And it's not very exaggerated. I often wondered what would happen. If one look a larger spoon. And re-sized it down to around half it's length. One would have to punch a new hold and do some modifications. To the spoon. To create a new hook attachment location. I can't understand to my mind. Why bass anglers. Are so precious about having their spoons. All shined up and immaculate. Fish don't care. They really don't.

    • @academicmailbox7798
      @academicmailbox7798 2 роки тому

      Especially if anglers have those rods. That have that braided line on them and such. So as to make those larger types of spoons. Really work some action in the water. In the same way. As one would go with a more aggressive propellor design. In some instances. For example, where a lake is overwhelmed with bait fish. For the fish to forage on there. One has to do something a bit different. To make the fish even want to look. At a bass angler's lure.

The only thing I think it's even close to is maybe a crappie or baby carp- Idk, I just know they eat it. Good tips Matt, thanks.
