A Little Added Bling for your Soft Stick Bait

[Scott McGehee]

Here's some video I shot trying out the Keith Poche Power Spinner.  Check it out and let me know what you think.

@Bullet3119   I like the idea and I can see this working on that deep lake you fish.

Do you know what size blade that is @Scott McGehee ??

Also, when you fished this rig, did you let the bait fall slowly as you normally would with a soft stick bait, or did you impart a little action to it in order to get the blade to move?

Curt,
 
It looks like a #3.  I was fishing with a 3/16 oz wt, so the blade turned very well any time the bait was move.  Keith fishes it weightless and gets the blade to turn freely.  it's got a very good swivel, so it doesn't take much to make it turn.

Awesome. Thanks Scott 

[Bullet3119]

Thanks! I think Joey makes those also.

[Joey Watts]

Yes I do and sell the fool out of them.

[Bullet3119]

@Joey Watts why haven't you recommended these to me? Lol

[ranger361v]

That looks like something to try for sure..

[Joey Watts]

I do them for 4.25 per 5 pack. I use a # 2 Colorado and a # 3 willow. I also have chart. blades in a 2.5 I could do them in. Cannot believe you have never seen me advertise them.

One of my favorite winter smallmouth baits is a Whirleybee, I've never tried this on a stick bait but it reminds me of the concept.

I've always used this image as a reference and ordered all parts from Jann's Netcraft to make dozens for pennies.  #1 swivel, #1 split rings and #2 or 3 blades in Colorado and/or willow.  The screw things are called Hitchhikers.

Thanks @Jake Grey Does the lack of a ball bearing swivel hamper or impede the rotation of the blade on that rig??

Thanks newbielink:http://www.bassboatboards.com/index.php?action=profile;u=227 [nonactive]  Does the lack of a ball bearing swivel hamper or impede the rotation of the blade on that rig??

Remember, you're fishing a worm not a spinnerbait.  I don't think the ball bearing swivel is crucial to this application.
