Slow Rolling Spinnerbaits

[fishintherock]

The co-angler that won the Central Pro-am Saturday said he caught his fish slow rolling a copper bladed spinnerbait. I have been told before that this works well on LOZ in early spring. Does anyone know about this and the types of banks fished and colors and weight??

Spinnerbait can be real good esp in the dingy water. Cold water temps dictate a very slow approach and bass may have a preference for color and blade configuration. That's why we buy so many! Don't be afraid to upsize the blade. The big gizzard shad that work along the bank is the reason for the big blade.

Yeah, fun bite to fish. When the water gets really dirty some of the guys probably think i'm out there muskie fishing with the blades I throw. I stick with the channel swings, points and any flat gravel I can possibly find. 1/2oz w/white or chartreuse skirt, copper and brass blades... and hang on!!!

Dingy and cold water slow rolling? Black 3/8 oz. twin spin with copper or silver blades reeled only fast enough to keep the bait from hanging on the bottom. Look up War Eagle twin spins.

I know for a fact that this is what he was throwing. Mark has done this in our club at LOZ in spring and has done well at times. I believe he likes to throw at the big concrete pillars at back of dock walkways in spring. I believe he throws a 1/2 oz white or chartruese I would think.
