Hard Hook 3/8Oz Spinnerbait?

[jiggz125]

Hey guys, I won this Hard Hook Spinnerbait on ebay and won it for $3 free shipping. I am not finding much info through google searches on them. Anyone have any expeience with these spinnerbaits. It was listed as unfished.

 

This spring I am going to try and gain confidence with spinnerbaits up here in Northern, WI. I would think this would do good in stained to muddier water?

That is an interesting design.  I'd be more inclined to fish that natural brownish color in clearer/ lightly stained water, but that is just me.  There isn't a good reason not to use it in more stained/muddier water.  With the two in-line hooks, I would try to rig up some sort of trailer.

 

Nose hooking a Zoom swimming chunk off the rear hook seems easy enough.  They make longer trailers.  Maybe something like a cut down paddle tail worm, nose hooked through the front of the worm and tex-posed through the body with the second hook.  That would add something flopping off the back of the spinner bait and give the fish something soft to chomp down on, which might give you a second or two more to set the hook.   You could do something similar with a boot tailed worm, like a swimming senko or one of the clones of that style.

 

You got lots of options.  Just my opinion, if I was throwing that bait, I'd rig some sort of trailer on it.
