LB test for spinnerbait 2024
Jonny15678 reply :
I will be using a medium heavy rod and throwing only 3/8oz spinnerbaits and buzzbaits, fishing in shallow water 10ft the deepest. Heavy vegetation to moderate some structure, what would be the best pound test to use?

Same here
MN Fisher reply :
My 1/2 oz and less I'm throwing on 20# braid, over that on 50#.
Ksam1234 reply :
I use 16 pound fluoro and never had a problem on spinnerbaits. Buzzbait is usually straight braid 50#

I agree! Or even 12 if the water is clear
greentrout reply :
12 # mono ... most of the time ... mostly throw 1/4 to 3/8 oz. spinnerbaits using mostly colorado and indiana blades gold and silver ... white & white/chartreuse skirts ... 1/6 1/8 oz. spinnerbaits 8 & 10 lb. mono on spinning tackle ...
like humdingers for 1/4 3/8 ... h&h and academy for the small spinners ...
good fishing ...
MassYak85 reply :
Open water around light vegetation and smaller spinnerbaits I'll go down to 10lb, otherwise I'm using 18lb. But that's really just because of the leader line I keep on me (10, 18, and 25). Ideally I'd probably go 15lb most of the time.

Yup. 12 is more than sufficient also if you aren't worried about being dragged into any brush, etc.

15lb mono
Bluebasser86 reply :
15-20lb Big Game or Pline depending on the amount of cover.

12-17 lb mono or 30-50 braid.
PersicoTrotaVA reply :
12 lb mono or fluoro, I don’t like throwing spinnerbaits on braid, they don’t tent to be forgiving and repeated use can destroy a spinnerbait balance and even destroy the bend on the wire. I tend to destroy spinnerbaits so I don’t throw 3/8 oz and larger spinnerbaits. I prefer the smaller ones, pond magic, 1/16 oz to 1/4 oz at the biggest. I fish a lot of skinny water. Depths of 6 feet maybe 8 feet max.
gilkeybr reply :
Another vote for 30lb straight braid. If I could only have one line, this would be it.

bagofdonuts reply :
Save the dough and use mono for spinner baits and buzz baits. I like 15lb pline, but most quality mono in the 12 - 17lb class will do just fine. Only time I use floro on my spinnerbaits is when I'm slow rolling them in late fall when the bites are subtle and i want them to run deep. Never used anything but mono on a buzzbait and I throw them alot, especially right now.
rod snapper reply :
20lb straight braid all day, it is physically impossible to break off, as well as providing a more solid hook set due to the low stretch. Honestly though, it probably doesn't even matter that much which line you use.
RB 77 reply :
12 or 15 Lb Copoly or mono for Spinnerbaits. Buzzbaits 15 Lb or heavy braid.
Log Catcher reply :
I use 1/2 ounce spinnerbaits and use 12# Sufix Siege.
Fishingmickey reply :
14-16# Mono or Fluoro. Trilene XL for the mono Sunline shooter for the Fluoro. I throw spinner baits a lot! Spinner of choice is 3/8-1/2 oz River2sea double willow. White, Chartreuse or the combo of the two.

16# flouro for spinnerbaits and 40# braid for buzzbaits
riverat reply :
15-20# Stren Hi Impact. Never had a problem.
scaleface reply :
If I was fishing in an area where big bass were more common and there was a lot of cover I would go with 15 lb Big Game but 12 lb has worked well for me . I cant recall a bass ever breaking it off while chucking spinnerbaits .
813basstard reply :
10lb Berkeley XL
never had an issue
everythingthatswims reply :
15lb fluorocarbon for me. I'll go to 17 or 20 if I'm fishing in nasty stuff or fishing at a place that has a lot of big fish
rt dak reply :
12 lb. McCoy Mean Green or Yo-Zuri Hybrid.
Bankbeater reply :
15 lb Big Game.
Boomstick reply :
I have used anywhere from 12-17lb mono or fluoro or 30 or 40lb braid. 15lb mono or fluoro seems to be the all around happy line for spinnerbaits as that has enough to pull them through most weedy areas just fine.

14 lb flouro
