Great tip Shannon! Thank you for sharing it with us. I never thought of tryin the redfish spinnerbaits. I'm gonna have to check them out.
I found a soft plastic bait company a while back and a lot of their ocean soft plastics looked pretty tempting for bass too. I will have to find that link and share it.

I built a garage and next will add a workbench, so when everything is unpacked and back in service I'll try posting some photos of my favorite spinnerbait creations step by step.

That would be excellent Jim!

For you folks that custom build spinnerbaits, a rig I try to keep in the box for when I think bass are going mostly for the trailing blade is to replace the clevis blade on a tandem spinnerbait with a red treble hook that isn't so big it hangs up in the trailing blade split ring. Just add a few extra beads to keep it far enough up shaft. A size 1 or larger hook won't spin and get you hung up while a smaller treble hook will spin and get you in trouble with weed and wood.

I'm not completely following you on this. How and where are you attacking the treble hook?

The hard part is doctoring it up in a photo editor.

If its easier, send me the undoctored image to my email ([email protected]) with an explanation as to how youd like it doctored up and I will help you out and doctor it for you and either send it back to you so that you can post it or post it where youd like for you.

This is a great thread!

I just got a great deal on skirts at the local walmart Ace... They had a mess of strike king skirts on sale for .75 a pack. I grabbed a few while I could.
