I was hoping you did more with your RUclips channel, because I figured you would give out great info. Between you and Edwin I’ve learned a lot. Great job!
Great video! Love the knowledge! I wish you would have added the Indiana and Oklahoma blades in the mix. I’ve had really good luck in my area recently with the Oklahoma blade. My best spinnerbait day was Dec 19 of 2019 fishing tannic water color air temp was mid 30’s water temp 49 and for no knowledgeable reason I tied on a 1/2 oz white with double white Colorado blades and no trailer(trailer hook) caught 41lb and biggest 5 was 18.8lb which is a great bag for my area of South Alabama. Of course I was not in a tournament!😜😂😂🎣🎣
Hey Jason just found out something that might help out. There is new channel Rumble you might want to post there also No govt censorship. Not a political person but times they are a changing plus might want to jump on bus while it is new. 🏆Hartwell Let’s Go
Very informative I appreciate that much you are quite sensible about it. Unlike the video that told me to put a Willow in the front and a Colorado in the back all I can think was this is going to be a hammer time because he didn't talk anything about different brands and the dish that put in their spoons and blades. All I can think is listening to this man is a recipe for disaster so I left him with no like and no subscribe just a comment two thumbs down but you get two thumbs up we can bring that up to 5 when your advice halls in a couple of fish.
Hey Mr Christie excellent video alot of the stuff you were talking about I had no idea about how technical this is I just started learning this year about 3/4 oz spinnerbaits and how effective they are I use to use 3/8 and 1/2 oz spinnerbaits and a lot of times I wasn't getting bit and I think now I wasn't useing the right blades or weight size . Thanks so much for this info. Hey Mr C I'm almost 60 years old I'm supposed to be teaching you. But it's the opposite way around. Hey Jason when I was younger I thought you guys were lying all the time and then when I started reading bassmaster magazine and these techniques you guys were talking about started catching me fish . So I sat down on my couch and said which shoe should I put the salt on because these bass guys are going to want to stick my foot in my mouth. So I whent out to this lake near my house and I couldn't catch nothing on my grubs ( Gary yomomoto) so I remembered the technique I was reading about ticking the branches of the wood with a spinnerbait. So I grab my spinnerbait rod and I tick the tree limb and I get a bass I tick the tree again and get another bass I tick the tree and get another bass after the third one that was it .point being and that's when I really started believeing in you guys big time. Just figured I'd tell you a story about my experience that day and that was about 20 years ago. Thanks for teaching me All this stuff about fishing I really appreciate you big time I wish I could go fishing with you just for one day. GOD bless you and your family and your families from your tv shows your pal fisherman Mike from Missouri.
Thanks for the great video jason.. I've been fishing spinnerbaits all my life. But realized just now I never really understood them like I thought I did. Keep them coming.
Now your really killing me my brother. I had to figure all this stuff out myself with the help of you JH anD RC now the chatter wagon heads get it for free. Still think your the best but please stop. 😂😂
Replacement arrived!By the way, I did forget to mention that the original lure did have a decent strike however as most anglers will attest you can get a hit ruclips.net/user/postUgkxCbNOWAGmn6nfbCbJDmasvBq7J38KZNw2 and fish will hang on and release lure. I used the replacement lure yesterday and ran thru a Shimano Waxwing, Kastmaster, Bobber (set to sink). I found the does run deep (I casting on the flats 3.5'). Make sure you adjust your rate of retrieve and rod tip angle (up) to prevent getting snagged on bottom. Used it a couple of times and action was very lifelike (looked like local bait fish for trevally), craftsmanship very good....however eyeball fell out. I asked for replacement and it is on it's way! It was very easy to change out treble to single inline hook.
Okay I believe in understanding what I'm doing so this will be around 5 in 5 days what is the basic breakdown for spinnerbaits. I know of about 5 different kinds of spinners. And I recognize seven different water types and the Spinners to be using under those water conditions. And I'm starting to recognize some of the nuances in The Spinners. Let's see if I can learn something new from you today that would be fun.
So I was wrong you're not going to use a paddle tail in perfect water you're going to use a flattail worm medium rig medium Willow 3 to 6 ft as I'm doing good to get a 2-pounder striper bass trout you know moving to the big boys as I go to Steelhead and Beyond. And increasing my weight my trailer and my spoons that deeper and I go and the bigger fish I am catching. And dropping to mouse tails and number 3 and number 5 spinners on my small lightweight rigs for sunfish.
If I understand a Colorado Willow combo is going to move like a hula girl with a big butt the bigger the Colorado the bigger the butt and the slower the drums. On the opposite end of the scale is the double Willow. The smaller the Willows the faster the hips and the faster you have to reel it in Clearwater silver blades no wind no Rapids so in the perfect conditions you're looking for the Silver Streakker. Slap on a chrome paddle tail and rock and roll better make that rock and real no rolling bate.
i realize he is just explaining things slowly and carefully and I definitely need that as a novice bass fisherman. Hahaha but also if you didn’t know the context of what he was trying to say, it sorta sounds and looks like he really really really does not want to do the video…. or was forced to…. or is super super bored or super super tired the way he sounds😂
Yes I do recognize that weight is important and spinnerbaits and I also recognize that if I'm going to be running spinnerbaits I better be running baitcasters and medium heavy rods because ugly sticks do not set the hook and if I'm running a light rod for a heavy bate monofil may not be my best bet so move two braid.
Mr. Christie great video lots of information. You are the ultimate in Spinnerbaits currently and follow greats such as Jimmy Houston and Hank Parker. Both of those guys were spinnerbait legends as well. Please keep up the great content and good luck this upcoming season.
I can’t go anywhere without a spinner bait. I have my outside the box baits that that have special times and places. Some you mentioned are in that group. Keep up the great videos. Tight lines and Godspeed
I actually had front row seat on your Bass University Tulsa the last two years you were there, Learning everything you taught in this video face to face.
saw the interactive chart yall made in the recent bassmaster mag. Pretty nifty tool to have man, good idea. yall should do more of those for diff baits.
Hey Jason what spinnerbait would you recommend for the Sabine River and what colors would you recommend as well buddy you and kvd are my favorite fishermen
Jason, do you ever fish a sb on bottom like fishing a jig? A well known sb guy here in FL pitches sb, jiggles blades a couple times then pitches into next spot.
Yes. Not on bottom bottom. In the first spinnerbait video the fish we’re holding tight to the bottom. I would slow roll the spinnerbait over their heads and wait for them to come off bottom and get it.
How do you add a trailer hook with soft plastic trailer? I tend to only use a trailer hook when I'm not adding a soft plastic trailer. I would rather use a trailer plastic at all times but find it difficult to have good action with a trailer hook as well. In a perfect world, I would use a trailer hook 90 percent of the time
I seen ott Defoe in video other day throwing a big willow w orange kicker catching Giants in cool water. There's nothing like this in the covert lineup thoughts on that?
i have been trying to stick with smaller spinner baits like eighth and quarter ouncers just because I have been fishing a med light rod a lot and the hooks are smaller for smaller fish too. Will have to move on up to the half ouncers when I finally get out to some more expansive waters.
I grew up on spinnerbaits man I love myself but using the chatterbait especially one of the ones made out of titanium or wherever they are those things happen money in the winter time dark water ChatterBait with a dark pumpkin skirt and a crawfish trailer red preferably really slow give it a couple jerks under the water get it like pop in actions
Really nice video with great information, I have allways caught a lot of fish on spinnerbaits but have rarely used a trailer and even then it was most likely a twin tail. I am ready to give those you like a try. Thanks
Good stuff Jason! I live in Wyoming and have always had awesome success with spinner baits. Great break down of how and when to use each variable. Excited for the the ice to come off. Good luck this year. I’ll be cheering you on!
Just ordered my first actual BASS boat with 2 10" Garmin Echomap Ultras. Im very excited obviously and have little experience with graphs in general as they are pricey and this is my first set. I would love an in depth video or series on all your favorite settings and anything you have learned on using them along with any tips you can give a first time user of sidevu and the mapping abilities/adjustments/waypoints. Go get them at the CLASSIC!!!.....and elites. Ill be routing you on from Africa until I get back home to east TN this spring. Caught my PB 8.0 last year on the 1/2oz white/blue/chart double colorado Covert. So thanks for that and your time reading this. God bless.
I'll follow u anywhere! Spinnerbaits my favorite bait this was a good video. How do u store your blades Jason? I keep mine in a deep 3700 in individual bags
I love using your single Colorado blade covert 1/2 oz white and blue slow rolling I get the bigs to bite man they really can’t help themselves from eating it’s unreal I never liked a spinner bait I couldn’t buy a bite with one , until I picked one of your coverts up totally changed my mind on spinner baits . True Engineering when you see and fish this dude Spinner Bait you will realize all the thought that has gone into his Spinner bait , I mean come on that off set lead head genius lot of time fishing with a bait to have thought of that Bravo perfect length wire too hook ratio so you don’t get hung up Bravo Jason Thanks dude
Great in-depth breakdown on when and what and how to fish the spinner bait. I used it quite often this past summer on the water. But caught a lot of pickerel on them.
great video if a person doesn't understand spinner baits and for a person with a lot of experience it a good refresher looking forward to more videos you have a great way of presenting information
I was hoping you did more with your RUclips channel, because I figured you would give out great info. Between you and Edwin I’ve learned a lot. Great job!
So basically life revolves around having some common sense. Think about what is going around you and react accordingly.
That is a Masterclass on what I would consider the most versatile bait in the box. Weight, blades, slow rolling, burning it... Great video JC
Damnnn this is one of the most informative videos ive seen in a while!!! Make more of these so I can binge watch !!!
Great video! Love the knowledge! I wish you would have added the Indiana and Oklahoma blades in the mix. I’ve had really good luck in my area recently with the Oklahoma blade.

Here in Louisiana we fish the heck out of dem tings! All our spinnerbaits have chunks of paints missing off the heads baw!
I love all bites but when they are on the spinnerbait they just kill it and it's a different kind of bite!!!!
Thank you for all your advice and help buddy
I feel spoiled after hearing you talk with John yesterday, great to meet you finally and looking forward to learning more from this one!

Grew up fishing Ky and Barkley lakes. Learned a ton from AJ Edwards who was a master with the spinnerbait. His was the Brush master.
So I was wrong you're not going to use a paddle tail in perfect water you're going to use a flattail worm medium rig medium Willow 3 to 6 ft as I'm doing good to get a 2-pounder striper bass trout you know moving to the big boys as I go to Steelhead and Beyond.

Dude's a freakin LEGEND 🤙
Turn a 10 fish day into a 20 fish day?
I'd be happy just to be able to catch a fish on a spinnerbait....
Am I the only one who NEVER uses a trailer on a spinner bait? I find I catch more fish without a trailer. I do find blade colors matter a LOT
I’ve always done without trailers. Maybe that’s why I never catch anything with spinnerbaits.
If I understand a Colorado Willow combo is going to move like a hula girl with a big butt the bigger the Colorado the bigger the butt and the slower the drums.

I’m putting as much of that as I can into a chart because all those specs and factors overwhelm me.
Where can you access that interactive chart?
Click Booyah Covert link in description and then click on any of the spinnerbaits listed. It is on all covert product pages
Great information Jason! Thanks for simplifying!
Yes I do recognize that weight is important and spinnerbaits and I also recognize that if I'm going to be running spinnerbaits I better be running baitcasters and medium heavy rods because ugly sticks do not set the hook and if I'm running a light rod for a heavy bate monofil may not be my best bet so move two braid.

Come on man . Handle those big fish with 2 hands . Hanging from the lip by your thumb cant be the best. Just my opinion
We need a company to make a hair skirt because the pike destroy the rubber skirts too quickly.
I can’t go anywhere without a spinner bait. I have my outside the box baits that that have special times and places. Some you mentioned are in that group.
Keep up the great videos.
Tight lines and Godspeed
Best MasterClass on RUclips. Can't wait for a series of these!
Okay I'm actually going to have to write this one down I know nothing about weights right now. Lay it on me brother my ear is bent!
I actually had front row seat on your Bass University Tulsa the last two years you were there, Learning everything you taught in this video face to face.
saw the interactive chart yall made in the recent bassmaster mag. Pretty nifty tool to have man, good idea. yall should do more of those for diff baits.
Wire lined up with the hook straight and at an angle no greater than 45 no less than 38.
Great start new information let's rock and roll.
Thank you for a great video and information. You really broke it down well.
I fish to eat a 20lb Stringer would mean I get to buy beer. Do not guide me into a hammer time bate and I will be happy with that at least.
Great info, much appreciated!
What about a video on spinnerbait wire size?
Jason great video! Great info on Spinner Bait basics..
Awesome break down thank you for sharing 👍
Thump, flash, size , and color, in that order.
Good show keep em coming enjoy watching you make more sense then 95 percent of others keep up the good work
Great video thanks for your information
Good stuff! Enjoying the new content and keep them coming.
Hey Jason what spinnerbait would you recommend for the Sabine River and what colors would you recommend as well buddy you and kvd are my favorite fishermen
Hard to say without knowing water conditions. 1/2 oz double Colorado is typically a good choice there this time of year
Jason, do you ever fish a sb on bottom like fishing a jig? A well known sb guy here in FL pitches sb, jiggles blades a couple times then pitches into next spot.
Yes. Not on bottom bottom. In the first spinnerbait video the fish we’re holding tight to the bottom. I would slow roll the spinnerbait over their heads and wait for them to come off bottom and get it.
Got what I needed to know. You're the man
Love the video I so need the chart 😊
You know any choates from sallisaw area?
How do you add a trailer hook with soft plastic trailer? I tend to only use a trailer hook when I'm not adding a soft plastic trailer. I would rather use a trailer plastic at all times but find it difficult to have good action with a trailer hook as well. In a perfect world, I would use a trailer hook 90 percent of the time
I don’t use trailer hooks
Just finished watching the podcast with Dave!! Great to know your committed and looking forward you and your channel.
my first year im going to use them thanks for the content
for me it seems like all the bait is hit or miss no pun intended :-)
I seen ott Defoe in video other day throwing a big willow w orange kicker catching Giants in cool water. There's nothing like this in the covert lineup thoughts on that?
The covert line is what has worked for me over the years. I will have more videos on this topic and how/why I chose my blade combinations
I bought one and im not impressed much
I have a fee I use and one of them is the one you have for booyah
That's exactly what my personal favorite professional bass pro Hank Parker said on spinner bait fishing.
Great job on the RUclips content👍👍
This man put on a spinner bait clinc on Toledo Bend back 2017. The trailers look exactly the same as what he was using back then.
Awesome video, keep them coming.
i have been trying to stick with smaller spinner baits like eighth and quarter ouncers just because I have been fishing a med light rod a lot and the hooks are smaller for smaller fish too. Will have to move on up to the half ouncers when I finally get out to some more expansive waters.
Great video, your videos keep getting better!
Good luck!!
Great video Jason, thx. Is there a time for painted blades?
I grew up on spinnerbaits man I love myself but using the chatterbait especially one of the ones made out of titanium or wherever they are those things happen money in the winter time dark water ChatterBait with a dark pumpkin skirt and a crawfish trailer red preferably really slow give it a couple jerks under the water get it like pop in actions
Really nice video with great information, I have allways caught a lot of fish on spinnerbaits but have rarely used a trailer and even then it was most likely a twin tail. I am ready to give those you like a try. Thanks
Great breakdown.
4in swimming dinger or 5 inch? I notice there is a difference in size of paddle tail.
I use both
love the content Christie!
Come Summer I might just try some of of these tactics up here in Canada!
My favorite RUclips fishing channel. Great info. 👍
Mr Jason is one best spinnerbait fisherman around have caught several 6 lb plus bass on his Covert spinnerbait he s the best from Ohio.
Where can covert series replacement skirts be purchased
Not sure they have those. Lurenet.com would be the place
Does anyone throw a black spinnerbait any more?
Yes, I do. Very low light or muddy conditions
All these tips like this from new to old videos from the pros is very affective on the water guys
Couldn't locate the "heat map" on the lurenet site. Sounds like an very handy tool for help in selecting the best suited lure.

Good stuff Jason! I live in Wyoming and have always had awesome success with spinner baits. Great break down of how and when to use each variable. Excited for the the ice to come off. Good luck this year. I’ll be cheering you on!
All spinnerbaits do the same thing. There is an elite level which no one has attained.
Just ordered my first actual BASS boat with 2 10" Garmin Echomap Ultras. Im very excited obviously and have little experience with graphs in general as they are pricey and this is my first set.

Appreciate it. I will have some videos for you soon
Great tips! What are your thoughts on the old school twin tail trailers?
I'll follow u anywhere! Spinnerbaits my favorite bait this was a good video. How do u store your blades Jason? I keep mine in a deep 3700 in individual bags
Same
Do you ever cut the longer part of the skirt shorter so I don't interfere with the trailer ? Thanks
Not much now that I throw the covert. Occasionally if I want a little smaller profile I will
Thanks for your reply I have really good success with the covert spinnerbaits here in the UK on the big pike , perch and chubb 💪👍
Solid guy!
Great Video

Great in-depth breakdown on when and what and how to fish the spinner bait. I used it quite often this past summer on the water. But caught a lot of pickerel on them.
Thanks
I wish I could fish a week with this dude, and pick his brain!
I fish a lake that is very muddy 2 -4 inch visibility and bright white with white blades seems to be the best instead of dark colors. Any idea why?
Typically they are feeling the blades in that dirty of water. White blades might be helping them see it
That was badass! Thanks for the great vid.
Great job Jason - learned a lot from your presentation. You cleared up a lot of questions I had on the blades and colors. Thanks man!
You bet
Thank you Mr. Christie
Great stuff right there
Good luck
Great tips from the spinner bait master thank you Jason
Best spinnerbait guy!!!
great video if a person doesn't understand spinner baits and for a person with a lot of experience it a good refresher looking forward to more videos you have a great way of presenting information
Appreciate it!
Thanks Jason this was the best spinnerbait video I've ever seen. Great break down and explanation. This is a save and view again video.
Appreciate it
Hey Jason, thanks for the tips! I was wondering about a trailer hook- do you add one to any of your spinnerbaits?
No I don’t use them
