Ping pong balls for the win. Once you've wrestled everything else in life is easy. Dan Gable I keep my circle small, I’d rather have 4 quarters than 100 pennies.

I’ve caught a schitt-load of trout on spin-a-lures.... lakes, streams..... casting, trolling, whatever. You can cast the crap out of them too.
Post pics when your done.....

I’ve always liked the silver ones and the black ones.... depending on the sunlight.
Caught a steelhead in the Carbon one year swinging a black one through a tail-out about 15 years back.... when there were still winter-runs in there.

VERY popular for trout all over the West. I've never thrown one, but I don't fish for trout much.

Copy I got at least 2 of each, 3 of the ones that looked good. Appears they’re very popular in the Rocky Mountain states, I’ve never seen or heard of em

They also make the Cast-a-Lure and another one called Wobble-Lure (or something of that nature). I’ve caught fish on them all... the Spin-a-Lure is my favorite though.
Good swivels save massive line-twist headaches.....

Never underestimate the trout catching capability of a CastMaster bombed 50 yards into a lake..... they’re like the .257 Weatherby of Trout Lures.

Dogshooter: Never underestimate the trout catching capability of just "dropping" a CastMaster lure down, just 8 feet, into 9 feet of water (through 24" of ice!) and jigging it a bit. I have caught some dandy large Brown Trout and Rainbow Trout doing this over the last 20 years. In my opinion the CastMaster is a wonderful and great trout catching device. I don't know why?

Jakes Spin A Lure looks a lot like a Super Duper, I have not had much luck with the few Super Dupers that I nave used. Could just be the luck of the draw.

The Silver one w/ red dots is a good one for trout in streams. The version that looks like a "super-duper" in brass w/ red dots is good too! The latter one is the one you can throw a mile. The spinner version with the triangular blade is built much lighter... thats the one you want in Silver w/ red dots!
I've had luck with both up in the Yellowstone/Henry's Lake areas.
