How Many Skirt Tabs For Spinnerbait And Buzzbait?

[Mumpy]

How many skirt tabs do you use with a Spinnerbait and Buzzbait? I'm thinking two will be sufficient

What say you?

Most of the time I use 2 tabs.

[Jig Man]

2 for me

[Skeeterman225]

I use 2 unless it's a complicated color. Then it might get thicker in order to balance out the colors I'm looking for.

2 to 2-1/2. I like a fuller skirt which makes for a slower fall or like skeeterman said if the color is complicated than you have to balance it out.

2.5 normally, but like Cadman said, go more for bulk and slower fall.

I use 2 1/2. I use the half tab as my "accent" color, like if I want a little chartreuse, red, or sometimes I will add a half tab of blue or black with my shad color skirts. I also use watermelon as an accent with my shad color skirts too...gives it a bit of an olive hue.

[Siebert Outdoors]

I use 2-2.5 of them.

Thanks a bunch guys, I figured it was 2 and I do the same as well, if it's a complicated skirt then you are taking some from this skirt, adding more on this and what not.

On other news, I made my first two Spinnerbaits last night, it's kind of cool working with an Airgun, really enjoying that part of lure making rather than the boring ole Fluid Bed, hehe.
