    Spinnerbait Experts out There..... Your Favorite Trailer ?

    I would like to ask those who feel they are advanced with spinnerbaits what is the trailer you like to use that you feel is the best to accent the spinnerbait versus running it without a trailer.

    If I use a trailer it would be a standard white or Chart twister tail.

    6” or 7.5” Culprit Worm. Pinch off all but the last three rings and thread it on. Only trailer I use on spinnerbaits and buzzbaits with skirts.

    I seem to do well with a trailer on rivers or lakes with smallmouth. I do not use a trailer much in weed beds for largemouth even though I'm sure it would work fine just my preference.

    I don't use a trailer very often but if I do it's usually a curly tail grub. Mostly just when I want something a little extra on the river.

    I won’t use one. It will cause short strikes from fish.

    I don’t use spinnerbaits as much as I used to but I was hard core once,down to matching blade type and color to match forage and water color. That said,I found that with grubs or curly tail worms,at speed they tend to stretch out and don’t have much more action than a plain split tail. That’s fine if that’s what you need but I think a 3-4” boot tail swimbait has much more action. Those little Keitek knock off’s from BPS make good trailers for Spinnerbaits,buzzbaits and chatterbaits,they have good action and are tough enough to stay on the hook.

    I usually throw War Eagle spinner baits so no trailer needed.

    The rare occasion I use a trailer (usually only in really dirty water or when looking for a big bite) I go to a yum swimming dinger or pulse swimbait (really dirty water or cold and looking for big bite)
    And I always use war eagle spinnerbaits.

    Have some of the new booyah covert series but have not used them yet.
