While looking at these at the Blaine show I recall them having different blade set ups for the different weights. Can someone tell me what the blade set up is for the 3/4, 1, and the 1 3/4 models? Thanks.

I got 1 at the show and just threw it on my digital scale; 2 5/8 oz w/fluted colorado blade. I could have got the same one w/giant willow leaf.
Sorry I couldn't be more help on this one.

Hi,

All sizes come standard with willow blades except the Little G (3/4 oz) which has a colorado. At the show, we did have a select few of the larger sizes with indiana blades. Hope this helps you out, if you'd like more info please e-mail me at [email protected].

Thanks,

Hey,
I love this new bait for both trolling and casting this is now a staple bait in the box, I like the shorter arm and the willow blade. This is a bait sure to attract the biggest fish in a system.
The heavier weights allow you to troll this at high speeds with out it breaking out.

I plan to troll this over and thru the tops of cabbage or cast it and let sink down into pockets to trigger dossle dormant fish!

This will also be a great tool in the rushes, very versitle bait!!

Hiya,
Yeah, the Grinders look like they'll come in handy now and then.

There was a period maybe 12 years ago or so when short arm spinnerbaits were all the rage in bass fishing, but they have sort of been forgotten, and I doubt you can find many available now. They are a pretty functional tool and are functionally different than long arm models - they come through cover different and fall different.

I'm a diehard Rad Dog guy - catch a lot of fish on them and will continue to, but the Grinders are certainly variations on a theme the Rad Dog started, with some specific purposes built in - as Pearson would tell you. Very nifty baits.

Cheers,
RK
