I have tried the crazy legs chigger craw, but i seem to do better with the regular chigger craw in green pumpkin or watermelon.

I just bought my first spinner bait, had no clue what i was buying, but after seeing some guys make a killing on the lake this past weekened with them while i was struggling, I figured I better jump on the band wagon or get left behind. I guess people actually put trailers on these as well?

I don't ever put trailors on my spinnerbait..if ya want alot of bass..go with 1/8th ounce..

Fish them slow Aaron...just fast enough to keep the blade moving and spinnerbait upright..when you reel fast..it tends to go sideways..1.4 ounce or bigger gets bigger bass and i use 3/8 ounce when hawg hunting only..but the numbers decrease..

My favorite color is white with either some red or black mived in it..I like willow leaf blades best and Indiana blades least..

Most spinnerbaits now are set up with a Tandom setup..
A willow in back with a tiny Indiana or Colorado blade in front...I use that type. I've caught about 100 bass on spinnerbaits..My son Aaron got a 6 1/2 polunder on one.My biggest on a spinnerbait is about 4 pounds...but lots of 2 - 2 1/2 pounders..good tournament lure to cover alot of structure water fast.

I love Strike King spinnerbaits..here is a double willow leaf.

what color trailers are you using SDO? Are you pinching off any of the crazy legs before attaching them?

On my jigs i normally use a Netbait "Baby Papa Craw" or a Yum "Craw Papa". These seam to do pretty well fo m,e. I have tried the trailer on the spinner bait but i find a that a trailer hook and a skirt that hangs over a little further works best.
