bought em once, about 25 years ago. After dealing with the mess and dried up leather on a spinnerbait. They went in the trash. Sorry to hear them go away though. They are classic.

Net bait paca craw in green pumpkin would go well. I think it would be tough to tell a difference in water with any color to it.

I agree. I've caught a lot of fish on beat up spinnerbaits that have no paint left on the head. Sometimes I think it may be better as it presents a different look.

100% agree with Matt.

whatever the water color is, green pumpkin with black flake is your answer...

use the grease. Every time.

Clean out with a small brush, and reapply.

If you can get a waterslide decal it will be the best. Put a clear coat over it.

nice rig. How are you transporting it? And how hard is it to load by yourself?

bravo. That is awesome! Like the grey.

very nice classy stick there.

build spinning on casting blank, and vice versa. It all works well. Just go by the taper and action, and you will be happy.

Fuji TiSics all the way.

Not sure of the model, but St. Croix has some 6'10" blanks that would be stiff enough and perfect for this application.
