Location: New Hope MN | I was if anyone has noticed a performance difference between the one plated (nickel) by 1 painted blade when throwing double bucktails? As opposed to both blades painted or both blades plated.
The painted blades have to be thicker and thus have different flow characteristics through the water. Perhaps this causes one blade to be rotating slightly faster and it will catch up to the other causing some kind of disruption (skipped/stopped rotation).
Am I overthinking things? |

| I make my own double 8's and 10's. The only difference I have noticed with the blades is with the double 8's, one painted and one plated seem to spin easier for me?

Location: Waukee, IA | They appear to spin slightly slower than plated metal blades. The difference is small, but just barely noticeable to the naked eye on double 8s. One could presume this is due to more drag from the extra thickness and a lower overall density of the painted and clear coated blades. I have no experience with one metal and one painted blade on a double buck.
What difference does this make to the fish? Probably not much
