Honestly, I usually fish with willows up there but I really liked the orange and yellow in the skirt on that bait, I knew that would get their eye, so I thought the blades would be less of a factor, especially since they were small. Figured I’d throw it for a bit and it they wouldn’t eat it I would switch to something that replicated a shad’s color and shape better. But… they ate it…
That strike at around the 4:20 mark is exactly the bite you want on a spinnerbait. You could see your whole rod just shake!
I love the way smallies eat a spinnerbait, they just smash it. My favorite bait for smallies for sure.
Nice video! Thank you for sharing!

What made you decide to go with the double Colorado setup?
