A Little Added Bling for your Soft Stick Bait

• 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.

• 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??

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