Just went to sporting goods store and noticed a large display of Rooster Tail spinners. In my 50 years on the planet, I've never caught a fish on one. Has anyone? Mepps, panther martin, blue fox...yes. Zilch on a rooster tail.
Someone must be buying them, because they still make them.
Yes, and my absolute favorite is the smallest ones (1/32 oz) with the propeller spinner. I use them on short striking fish as an extra dropper behind a larger spoon or other lure. The combination is deadly on bass, rainbows, walleye, and panfish.
