Spinnerbait blade colors GOLD vs SILVER vs colored
I was curious if there was a video that I have missed explaining the colors on spinnerbait blades and when to use which. I have not found one after looking. If there is no video then maybe someone can help me out. I haven't used many spinnerbaits due to lack of knowledge but I want to change that. Thanks
https://bassu.tv/bass-fishing-video/spinnerbaits-pete-gluszek. I discuss spinnerbiat blades in this seminar. My general rule has become this. I use all silver blades when fishing around shad and herring. I mix gold and silver blades in water that has some stain to it. I use gold blades in stained water and when I'm fishing around bream or yellow perch. We just filmed a seminar with spinnerbait specialist Wesley Strader. This will be launched soon. Don' t miss this one. Wes has a very simple and effective method for choosing a blade.
Pete,
what about purple, green, orange, red, yellow spinnerbait blades? If we are trying to match the hatch and there are yellow perch would wouldn't yellow blades be useful or if we are going for minnows with a green back like alewife wouldn't green blades be useful? thanks Pete
I do use colored blades too. Especially recently. I'm constantly evolving my blade combinations. I have used blades that have green glitter and blue glitter to great success. Orange, white and chartreuse blades are also in my arsenal.
