Super User ww2farmer Posted July 28, 2019 Super User Posted July 28, 2019 Does anyone know what size the Oklahoma blade size is on the War Eagle finesse spinner bait is. I'm starting to make my own spinner baits now, and these blades are very good for me in certain situations. I know I could buy a bunch of different sizes to find a match, but I'd rather ask first. Thanks guys. Quote
riverbasser Posted July 28, 2019 Posted July 28, 2019 Tried to take a picture for reference but with the terrible service I get at home I couldn't get it uploaded. I'm pretty sure they are #4's. PM me your email and I will send the pic of both a number 4 and number 5 next to a nickel(couldnt find a singke quarter in my house lol) 1 Quote

riverbasser Posted July 28, 2019 Posted July 28, 2019 Your welcome. Also when you go to buy them, I didnt find anywhere that listed them "Oklahoma". Most call them Mag willow blades 1 Quote
Super User Munkin Posted July 28, 2019 Super User Posted July 28, 2019 Either Jannsnetcraft or Barlow's has a actual size chart you can print out. Allen 1 Quote

Thanks again. Quote
Super User smalljaw67 Posted July 29, 2019 Super User Posted July 29, 2019 Wide willows, Olympic, mag willows, Oklahoma, and turtle back are all names for the same type of blade. In supply stores you see either wide willow, Olympic, or mag willow, the other names, Oklahoma and turtle back are names given by a spinnerbait manufacturer, also the War Eagle Mike McClelland finesse spinnerbait in the 5/16oz size uses a #4 mag willow. I haven't come across the 3/16oz version but I'd guess it is a #3, I have those blades in #3, #4, and #5 and the #4 I think would be a little much on a 3/16oz bait. 1 1 Quote
