Anyone here use Beetle Spins regularly?
Just curious if anyone on here still ties on a Beetle Spin (or similar jig spinner) when chasing the crappie? I always hear about folks pulling cranks, spider rigging and wigglin' and jigglin' one pole at a time, just curious if anyone still casts for their crappie?
I got to have something to change the pace with every now and then, so swimming a grub or slow cranking a Beetle Spin are essential to my sanity every now and then.

Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving in a pretty, well preserved body,
but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out and loudly proclaiming "WOW what a ride".

In spring I still use them. Here is a 2.3 lb one caught on a blue/clear sparkle tube rigged on a spinner in Toledo Bend. Caught a nice mess of them that day and all over 1 lb.
By the way, I'm a big guy. That fish would look real big with a skinny guy behind it.

I often use roadrunners with twisty tails when long lining. Best in spring and early summer, but are effective all year long.

I cast them offen,even in the winter,even change the blade on some to color blades,even willow leaf.Some times I use a ponyhead for the jig which gives a spinner on the beetle spin and one on the pony,depends.

That is my favorite way to fish for darn near anything . I got beetle spins that will fit up to 3/4 oz. Here is one 3/4 . not a very good pic but all I got . Do-It wasn't the first one to come up with a lure that has a swivel skirt . Don Butler was the first years ago . This is an Okie Bug Gator Bait .
