For All the Guys Unhappy W/their Spinnerbait Bite

I am a huge believer in speeding up your spinnerbait, especially in clear water.  I also use glitter blades in clear water and think that has a lot to do with getting more bites.  I only use trailers in the springtime as well but only in stained water and when I'm around heavy cover.  I think that it helps draw the fish out of hiding.  Another good thing to try when burning your bait is to hesitate for a split second during the retrieve.  This allows your blades to bang together and will often trigger a bite from a follower.  Another tip for working your spinnerbait fast is to close the frame some.  By that I mean making it more streamlined so it creates less drag in the water.  You can also work a spinnerbait slower by opening up the frame.
