Here's what I'm using. These are not true "Beetle Spins" because I make my own.


Here's some results.


The rigs pictured are 1/8 & 1/16th oz heads & 1 1/2 in tubes or curly tails.

1 - ultralight rod/reel, 4 lb test line & some of these rigs, almost gauranteed fun! Find some weed edges in 6 -12 FOW. Toss it out & reel it back. If that don't work, slow it down. Sometimes so slow I can't feel the blade spinning. Other times they hit it on the fall or "twitched". Experiment till you find what they want. Hang on - Big Bass & Pike sometimes hit it too. Somedays color does not matter, somedays it will make a difference. Rule of thumb for both bodies & blades, "Bright day, Bright color - Dark day Dark color.

Alot of folks think you can't troll something this small but you can. A 1/16 oz spinner rig will get down around 5 ft on light line. This can be a great way to locate 'em.
