Spinnerbaits TW Fall Staff Picks

During the fall, there's no better shad imitator than a spinnerbait. Loaded with flash, flowing movement, and a pulsating signature, the spinnerbait delivers a triple-threat of attraction that mirrors the underwater presence of most baitfish to a tee. This makes it a no-brainer around shad-focused fish.

While your standard 1/2oz double willow spinnerbait will undoubtedly get the job done most of the time, Tackle Warehouse Staffer, Tyler, varies blade size and blade count throughout the autumn to get dialed into the bite. If they are keyed in on bigger bait, try a large, single willow blade to mimic the presence of larger forage. When the bait is small and plentiful, utilizing a combination of smaller blades can pay huge dividends in the fall as they create a mixture of flash that aligns with what's on the menu.

"If you start seeing bigger forage swimming around, it's time to change up your presentation. And when the fish are relating to smaller bait, there's no substitution for a multi-blade spinnerbait. " - Tyler, TW Staff
