Spinnerbait
SpecializedIntermediateFreshwater
A safety-pin-shaped wire with spinning blades on one arm and a skirted hook on the other — the open-hook design mostly resists snagging even through cover, making it a confidence lure in weeds and timber.

Technique tips
- Slow-roll it just above visible cover instead of burning it straight back.
- Bigger blades mean more lift and vibration — go bigger in murky water, smaller in clear.
- Let it helicopter down on a semi-slack line next to cover — falling spinnerbaits draw reaction strikes.
