Drew0613 Posted March 1, 2023 Report Share Posted March 1, 2023 Hey guys. I’m new here and new to lure building. Sorry if this has been posted. I was wondering when your building an line spinner like a Mepps for example. When it’s a #3, do you use a #3 hook, blade and Clevise all together or is it best to use different sizes. Thanks for the help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBarlow Posted March 1, 2023 Report Share Posted March 1, 2023 You will have to measure each part of the spinner. There are no standards when it comes to hook or blade sizes. One model size 4 hook may not be the same length as a different model size 4 hook. Same goes with blades. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kasilofchrisn Posted March 1, 2023 Report Share Posted March 1, 2023 As was mentioned above just because it's the number three doesn't mean they're all the same size. Also different blades from different manufacturers can be different depending on who made the blade. So a number 3 blade from Lakeland may be a different size then the number three blade from Worth. And different vendors will carry different brands of blades though they often times won't list the brand that they are. So if you ordered number three blades from Barlow's they may be slightly different size then a number three blade from LPO. I like to carry a variety of sizes and then I can put them together before I finish the spinner and see how they all seem to look and work together.
