Thread: Roadrunners

I like willow blades, not really sure what the fish like but I catch a few.

On spinnerbaits willows were easier to pull in and rode up less on fast retrieves and have better flash but less vibration than Colorado blades.

I like them all. I like the regular Colorado blades better though.

Just curious if anyone had seen a preference as to what the fish seemed to like better.

I think the Colorado blade makes more vibration than the willow. That's what I use with the Grenada Minner to catch what few I catch when spider rigging Grenada....

Hammered brass willowleaf for me when I get mine made. I also want the largest blade that can be used and the bait still track right.

I let the water tell me which to use. Mostly Colorado and largest blade I can get away with in our normally muddy water..Water more clear I'll put on a couple of willows. I'm like MrDucks, I want largest blade that will let lure run true. I use some with 3 1/2 willow on 1/8 oz which is pretty big.
