My favorite is not made anymore. It was a brand called Bulldog. I believe they were around in the eighties.

 

I have some of those hiding in my basement.

My favorite has been the strike king red eye. I have caught a lot of fish on it, plus my PB fish.

My favorites are old Hildebrandt spinners that were made in my hometown. They are long gone but i still  have a few 1/8 for crappie. Now I luse War Eagle or Stan Sloan Zorros.

The northland spinnerbaits are awesome for $3. Good colors, sharp hooks, closed wire(awesome feature) and are tough as nails. I caught over 100 bass/pike on a single one last year in chartreuse and it looks no different from the day I bought it besides half the skirt missing and no red finish on the hook. That's my .02

I even setup those 99 cent 1/8 oz spinnerbaits with a blue glimmer skirt and a mt trailer.

or a 1/8 oz spinnerbait with a hot chartreuse skirt and a mt trailer.

i trim the length of the skirt a tad. I trim the body on the mt grub so it fits the length of the hook. Even the cheap spinnerbaits work if we tweet them.

 

i find my skirts at brannans bass shop. The blue glimmer skirt for the white spinnerbait and the hot chartreuse skirt for the chartreuse spinnerbait.

 

dont forget I’m a shore fisherman I keep spinnerbaits small but with the larger skirt so it has a wider view. Bulk is the key.

Old school terminators, followed closely by Pepper Custom Baits Spinnerbait and Nichols Pulsators.

I've been digging the Pepper Customs lately. Favorite replacement skirt is my own blend.

Old school here as you know. I bought my first spinnerbaits back in the early 70's. Fleck was the No. 1 manufacturer of them back then. Been using them successfully ever since. Inexpensive and effective. Being as they are still produced today, makes you wonder how far off can they be, right. :)

Fleck, that's a new one to me. Will have to check them out. Cool coming across brands u never heard of.

Shallow , spring , dirty water I use bright chartreuse skirts with a lot of thump . As soon as the bass get conditioned to them , in a week or two ,    I switch to smaller ones with willow leafs and duller colors . Summertime clear water deep , I use a heavier bait with a small blade/blades  in shad color . Shallow and clear A lighter weight , willow leaf shad or bluegill color . Fall I just play it by ear . Brand , I dont give a hoot . Half the time they are homemade lures .

 

 

Night time I have been fishing the Strike King Midnight special exclusively . I need to add a chartreuse skirt to one and fish it this spring .
