i recently bought a few new strike king spinnerbait. i've had success with them in the past but these new ones are different. when i reel them in the go sideways. when i stop the straighten out. am i reeling them in to fast?

Bend the wire until they go straight.

When you slow your retrieve, do they straighten out? If not, do what chuck said.

when i slow the retreive they straighten out but i am reeling so slow they start to sink. i'll try bending the wire.

i would bend them.
i have had very good luck w/ their titanium spinner baits.

try bending them

I always try to lin up the hook perfectly with the wire. Works for me.

Hey I see the pros do it all the time on TvyOU Need needlenosed pliers to bend the eyes on crank baits. Something else that will help is to tie on a real small snap swivel.

gotta love them pliers

bare hand + rattle trap = disaster

needlenose pliers + rattle trap = life saver
