Spinnerbaits catch a ton of bass in Spring, but you need to know the tricks! From prespawn to shad spawn, there is a place for a spinnerbait if you know how to adapt. Different blade combinations, colors, and trailers all play a huge factor in your catch rate. This is everything you need to know!
Spinnerbaits are a HUGE category! They come in a variety of sizes, blade shapes, colors, and configurations. Most anglers have a favorite bait or two and hope for the best. Today we're going to show you how to adapt your spinnerbaits to changing conditions throughout the Spring so you can catch more fish!
