What kind of car are you guys driving that would make such a difference in gas in only 3 miles diff. I drive a 89 jeep that only gets 17 mile to the gallon and that isn't going to break the bank in 3 miles or so :lol:I'm startin to think about buying spinner parts... Where should I buy them in bulk without driving to b c angling (i really dont feel like driving that far just for spinner stuff I know pretty stupid)? in joes, I glanced and one pack has only 2-4 blades, still like 3 bucks. I read that some places you can get blades for as cheap as 1-4 cents per part. Once I buy them though, Im going to have a lot of the same color, how do I change them without buying new blades? Spray paint? Where do you buy your spinner stuff (besides b c...)?
I keep reading about all this tuning spinners and all Call me dum or what not but what does this mean. I know there must be something to it because the day that I got my first three in three hours using BF, each fish was on a new spinner in less then four cast and after I got the fish and kept using the same spinner nothing for half hour or more then switched to new one never in water and wham by the forth cast fish on. After that nothing again till I put a new one on that hadn't hit the water and there you go about forth cast wham again. Now if this is the case I need to make my own so I can "retune" them because can get spendy if I have to keep buying a new spinner after every fish.Blue Foxes are a novel idea, executed very poorly...That said they are not only bold face lying on the package by telling you you are getting a vibrax component, when you can plainly see that is is lacking the only components that have ever used "Vibrax" in the name, the blades. The real vibrax blades have vertical sharp flutes in the blade, and the BF's certainly do not. They do have a fluted inner body, that does emmit some energy, but still, that is not a vibrax. The lopsided wire loop is just another way you get skunked for 5 bucks. It does make a difference, as any imbalace in the spinner will send out an "off" frequency, that detracts fish. Enough thrashing of BF...for now. Some time I will show you some of the "bell body" spinners that I have produced, and you will see, and hearthe difference. On actual real world fishing testing done by the manufacturer of the spinner components I purchase, The Blue Fox spinner caught 1 fish for every 9 fish boated or banked by the the "Rattler Bell", which is the spinner that I now twist up, pretty much primarily, because I have had such good luck with them. Produced properly, my spinners catch a lot of fish, and I re-twist them after just about every fish hooked, even if they roll into me and spit it. The spinner I produce are also tuneable, so after one fish hooked, I can tell you in an instant if the spinner will catch another...Can't do that with Blue Foxes, or any other brand for that matter. The little things count!
Well I intend on going to bc next week and picking up some stuff for making my own and trying some new things and hope to produce more strikes and more fish. BF was the first spinners someone on the bank told me to use and swore by so I went for it but I'm always out to try something new and if it produces more (witch I have seen from you guys) then oh yeah I'm there.

I twisted my first spinner yesterday!Notin but a paperclip, beads, and old bf.
Lol thanks, yeah, the paper clip looks like it would snap under a coho... I just twisted another one... they are real fun... This time, the eyes are more balanced and I put less beads on, so its all better. Thing is, I don't have any treb hooks or split rings, I better go restock...Oh yeah, the paper clip is not that thick, It is a small one.
