The day of the spinners

Featured Replies

So I got my day off yesterday and went out on Wylie. First hour and a half did not get a single bite threw almost everything I had at them. So, I went to my Vibrax spinners and right off the bat, caught 3 huge catfish.

Then I got into another are and started popping Bass like crazy on the spinner. The frustration part was I lost the largest Bass I have ever seen out of a Bass Pro tank TWICE! Got him to the boat TWICE and could not get the net under him. Course the good part was I got the best part of the fight with him twice too. Thing must have jumped clear out of the water half a dozen times.

Anyway, because of the number of hangups there, spinners are usually the last thing i go to, after my first catfish hit, I used them the rest of the day.

Anyway, awesome day.

Vibrax spinners are my favorite brand, and a lot of the time the bass hit them when they'll hit nothing else. I think they're under-utilized by bass fisherman. They're also a great bait for beginners because you just cast and reel in. My girlfriend caught her first fish ever the other day on a Vibrax.

Sorry you lost the big girl, but it still sounds like it was a great day.

Yeah but I did get the best of the fight. That fish jumped so high, then fought like crazy. Pulled my jon boat around the cove a bit. It was real fun. I just wish I could get that lure back. LOL

In line spinners rock. I'll never understand why they get no respect. They catch fish. Period.

Sorry about the lost toad. We've all had that heartbreak :(
