Some very deep insights here on the use & selection of spinnerbaits. Henry David Thoreau once wrote, "Simplify, simplify, simplfy." A lot of folks get tied up in their socks over which spinnerbait to be tossing. Agreed, bass can be selective, some of the time. But mostly I've caught a lot of bass on the same spinnerbait that Bill Dance uses; a 3/8 - 1/2 oz., single silver blade with a black body & skirt. I have a box FULL of all kinds and colors. Yet, in all the years I've been tossing spinnerbaits (don't ask!), the above selection has produced reliably for me, time & time again.

 

And, I use one of the oldest spinnerbait designers and manufacturers....Fleck. Probably because I'm old too! Some folks just have a tendency to "over-think" some things. I don't. Just another opinion folks.

Again use what you have confidence and can afford-Just go fishing-
