Too bad Strike King stopped making the KVD spinnerbait selector. Tried to find one with no luck. Bringing that back would help their spinnerbait sales because there’s so many options besides most guys just buying a 1/2 oz chart/white double willow.
I enjoy learning from the greatest person/ angler to ever play the game especially when it's One of The greatest baits ever made ..I just love a spinnerbait . thanks for all you've done/doing for the sport ..
My inner voice always makes fishing decisions based on What would KVD do. Absolutely the goat. However, when it comes to spinnerbait colors, I have to go old school and follow the guidance from Hank Parker. Color don’t matter. You can use chartreuse and white or you can use white and chartreuse, makes no difference. 😁
They are so expensive now, so I still make my own! Started in 1972 in high school with the original Okibug blanks and buy the other components. You can also use the large Beetle Spin attachment and buy lead head jigs and paint them the color of choice. The new ones look great with the head shapes, eyes and scales, but most are around $7-$10 each which is absurd! To me they are mostly a reaction bait and I seem to catch just as many if the color combo is right. Red head with white skirt is my favorite buzzbait of all time!
Now time to discuss what type of trailer & color, if any. Fishing Lake Michigan as I do also, it can be windy. Got almighty it can it get rough. So a good action trailer is paramount.
I've been using Z man power finesse spinners. Colorado/ Indiana blades in color mouserat,(dark silver), dynamite little spinnerbait. Also Booyah Tux and Tails black copper Colorado's ....two good non white or chartreuse alts.

First 🙌🏻 thx for the info KVD! #theGOAT
You are the GOAT!!
I fish mostly where bluegill is the main forage so what color do you think is the best for me to use ?
Do you always use a trailer hook on your spinnerbaits?
