Best Spinnerbait 2024


fishing user avatarTrickyVT1887 reply : 

I'm looking for a new spinnerbait since Glamour Shad going out of business I need to fine a new brand. Anyone know any companies that make good spinnerbaits comparable to glamour shad?


fishing user avatarP reply : 

These guys make an awsome spinnerbait!  

http://www.stickembaits.com/


fishing user avatargrid reply : 

I like there spinnerbaits.  What are the prices?


fishing user avatarSnakeEyes reply : 

try the heavy cover spinnerbait

www.heavycover.com


fishing user avatarShakes reply : 

Strike King! Stick with the best, man.


fishing user avatarP reply : 

Not sure why there prices are no longer showing on the website.  Send them an email and I know they will get back with you pretty quick.  Harley is a good guy and makes a really good spinner bait.  They will make almost any combinations you want.  I have done really well on there bamma bug too for river smallies!!!

His email on the site is hryan@stickembaits.com

Strike kings are pretty good!  I like more specialized colors and stick'em will make them for you at a reasonable price.


fishing user avatarllPa1nll reply : 

I prefer the Titanium wire Spinner Baits myself...


fishing user avatarzara spook reply : 

I am particularly fond of terminators...  I don't know how they compare to Glamour Shads though.


fishing user avatarbocabasser reply : 

hildebrand and war eagle. the thinner the wire the better.


fishing user avatarMALTESE FALCON reply : 

I'm not familiar with Glamour Shad, but I have had good success with Terminator, Strike King, and Leverage.

fishing user avatarTrickyVT1887 reply : 

Thrown titanium wire spinnerbaits and don't particularily like them because you cant tune the bait, and I have a couple from heavy cover I just havent had a chance to throw them yet.

Terminators here too..


fishing user avatarfrogtog reply : 

1887 you need to try the Hawg Hustler from Classic Lures. This spinner bait

is alsome and well built, I found it two years ago and have won 7 tournaments

on the spinner bait only. You don't find theise baits every where you have to order them. The web site is www.klassiclures.com  If you go this route I would

appreciate if you would mention my name. Thanks

fishing user avatarRedlinerobert reply : 

Wow - that heavycover site is cool.  Right now I'm partial to the Terminator titanium spinnerbaits myself -


fishing user avatarbassmaster8100 reply : 

The only spinnerbait Im gonna throw is a StrikeKing. Preferably a Strike King Premeir Plus. Ive had a tremendous amount of success with this lure.


fishing user avatarWayne P. reply : 

The best one is not made any more, BassBuster Scorpion, The next best is www.soblures.com


fishing user avatarMatt Fly reply : 

This time of the year, I like the Strike King Quad shad with four willow blades.   Seems to work great with shad spawning.

I just purchased my first Booyah spinner baits this weekend, this model has three willow leafs.    A little cheaper than the 9.00 Quad Shad.

For the river, I'm fond of the old H&H's.

Yes Jedi masterthat I have indeed...hahaha


fishing user avatarMunkin reply : 

Tell us what it is you like about the Glamour shads? Is it the colors, blade configurations, weight? Tell us what caracteristics they have that work well for you and I am sure I can recommend a similar bait.

Allen


fishing user avatarTrickyVT1887 reply : 

Let see they run perfectly tuned out of the package have high quality components, I love their 1/8oz bait because it casts like a 1/4oz but you can fish them alot slower. They give off alot of flash and vibration and have high quality skirts, and the fact that they sell baits with Indiana blades as well. Also they have a minnow head design with 3D eyes.

fishing user avatarTrickyVT1887 reply : 

Todd Davis is the creator of them they came out of Newport News VA and here is a better picture of them.

fishing user avatarFishTank reply : 

Terminator has to be favorite and maybe Booyah second.  I don't care for Strike King.  I have a few that have rusted and in general, I was not pleased with how they performed.


fishing user avatarguest reply : 

I'm not necessarily the person to ask about spinnerbaits.

but i throw terminators and leggebusters.

I used to use Flecks alot and had excellent success.  


fishing user avatarMunkin reply : 

http://www.***.com/descpageREVSPIN-RSBS.html

Based on what you like about the Glamour shads I would check out the Revenge baits?

Allen


fishing user avatarTrickyVT1887 reply : 

Thanks Allen thats just about what im looking for


fishing user avatarBrad_Coovert reply : 

I like Booyah! and Secret Weapon Lures.  Secret Weapon has the best blade system going IMO.

Brad


fishing user avatarMunkin reply : 

I did not like most of the baits out there because they did not fit my needs so I started making my own. Booyah are ok but they could be better? Strike King needs to start beating their Chinese child slave labors until they learn how to put a skirt on straight :-? There quality has went downhill so far it may never return. Right now if I had to buy a spinnerbait I would get a Revenge or a SOB mini-me. Terminators have a very loyal following but I have no experience with them.

Allen


fishing user avatarTrickyVT1887 reply : 

I'm the same way like I can't find one on the shelf that I could see myself throwing thats why i liked the glamour shad was because it was a higher end bait with better components and also was made locally, or rather locally to me Newport News VA, opposed to the more mass produced baits you find on the shelves.

Munkin can you upload a picture of the spinnerbaits you have made?


fishing user avatarbasser89 reply : 

Check out Picasso spinnerbaits. They have a similar profile and have been one of my top producing spinnerbaits over the last 4-5 years. Here's a link: www.picassooutdoors.com


fishing user avatarmichbass reply : 

Anyone use any spinnerbaits  by Nichols? www.nicholslures.com  I have heard people taking good about them but have never seen them for sale anywhere?

I also like the dual/quad willows this time of year...

especially since i just caught two nice fish today which weighed 3 and five pounds on a terminator double wilow. :)


fishing user avatarCajun Caster reply : 

Two pages of replies and I can't believe nobody mentioned the Longshank.

Check this out:

http://thelongshank.com/

Never use a trailer hook again. And, these don't get hung up like trailer hooks because the hook is always pointing up.


fishing user avatarCatt reply : 

Stanley Wedge; It's all about the blades  :)


fishing user avatarRattlinrogue reply : 

I've had loads of success with the Strike King Bleeding Bait series in white or chartreuse.Also like the SK Pro Model in white with gold tinsel.


fishing user avatarford_man reply : 

I would pick terminator they make this great spinnerbait/buzzbait hybrid that makes alot of vibration.This is their site

www.terminatorlures.com :)

That is a good looking lure.

I have been suing Booyahs successfully and not much else.  They have held up really well and seem to be well made.  Gonna try some of these mentioned here though just to see what else is out there.

fishing user avatarGotta Love It reply : 

I agree with the Stanley wedges!  Definitely my go to spinnerbait!


fishing user avatarBigAL reply : 

KVD only!


fishing user avatarAvalonjohn44 reply : 

I just got three glammer shad spinners at Kmart for a $1 apiece.  They look like the Matzuo spinners, are they any good?


fishing user avatarTrickyVT1887 reply : 

avalonjohn I'll give you $2 a piece for them


fishing user avatarLightninrod reply : 

Never had one as these as they are almost 'unobtainable' but they surely look impressive:

They are designed and made by Gancraft, a Japanese company.

I've used and caught some nice Bass on the KVD spinnerbait, made by Strike King.

Yes, I have some and have caught Bass with them.  They are high quality in every way.  I bought mine through their online store.

fishing user avatar.ghoti. reply : 

Lightningrod, we can always depend on you for pics and info on the really cool, high-end stuff.

Thanks,

GK


fishing user avatarjb_adams reply : 

I may be still a newb but I really don't think there is a "one bait fits all" type spinnerbait.  I think it depends on the lake and the geographical location.  With that said, there are so many other factors to consider, clarity, temp, colors, blade sizes & colors, textured blades, and thanks to Lightingrod now there are wire configurations! ;D

I believe War Eagle are the best all-around spinner baits on my local lake but I usually try others to see if I can utilize a cheaper spinnerbait.  I'm ready to now step up and strictly use War Eagle and try Terminator.  There are other spinnerbait companies that make awesome looking baits but they catch more anglers than fish I'll bet.

I completely agree with the earlier statement that: "it's all about the blades."  That will make the biggest impact by far on whether you're catching fish or not.  Am I right?  If I'm not, let me know.  I'm still a newbie.

I am going to have to bend a wireform like one of these to try out. It looks like it would not be very stable though?
