    Go with the size 0. The size 00 are too small and don't spin, they just flop around.

    Yeah, the lighter not smaller wired ones work best. You all might find this info useful.

    I found some smaller wired spinners when I purchased 20 Creme 1.5" Spoiler Spin Shad Lure. They sell them at Wally World for about .98 cents each.

    I use the actual (minnow part) lure for tightline sacalait fishing.

    I put a trout magnet or a black & chartreuse curly tail or sometimes a live minnow-1/16th jig head on the spinner part and fish as beetle spin. Blade is about a size 0 but the wire is very light and spins like crazy.

    Ok, I’m a little slow. Spins like the blade going mad or rolls over like a roadrunner pulled too fast? I’m liking a fast spinning blade.
