Jason O Posted March 21, 2008 Report Share Posted March 21, 2008 For in-line spinners 3/8,1/4,and 1/8 what size blade would you recommend? Will use french and willow blades. Would .031 wire be fine for all of them or do I need to go bigger? Thanks for any help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spike-A-Pike Posted March 21, 2008 Report Share Posted March 21, 2008 Recommendations according to the Canadian Guide to Lure Making,:-:-: Lure Making :-:-: The Official LureMaking.com Website | Tackle Components | Lure Components | Lure Making Information | Lure Making Supplies It looks like it is more based on blade size than anything else. You may want to go light on the wire if you are bending your spinners with pliers and vise-grips, just hand tools, and a bit heavier if your using a spinner bender. 0.024” Spinners with blade sizes 0 to 4 0.028” Spinners with blade sizes 3 to 6 0.030” Spinners with blade sizes 3 to 6 0.035” Spinners with blade sizes 5 to 8 0.051” Musky Spinners 0.062” Musky Spinners You need to figure out which fish you plan to target... for bass I'd go with a #3 fluted Indiana blades in addition to the ones your thinking about.
