We have fully remastered Mike Iaconelli's spinnerbait bass fishing seminar class video from Harrisburg, PA. In this 52-minute video, Iaconelli breaks down what a spinnerbait is and why, even though it's a classic, it's still a great modern lure with loads of flexibility to catch bass in various conditions. Iaconelli goes in to break down the components and configuration of a spinnerbait and in what circumstances you want to use: different blades, various colors, lighter/heavier weights, shorter/thinner wire and more. Once you have your spinnerbait selected, Mike has 5 fish-catching retrieves that will put fish in the boat. Sure, chunk'n'wind is one of those retrieves, but it's certainly not the only one.
