The cowgirl has a # 6 I believe. Is there a benefit to going up in size? Does that allow the blades to spread out and give off more vibration?

Thx,

Rob

The blades will rotate more slowly for openers. I should think it would also create less drag through the water column and make it a little easier to retrieve.

i should have been more clear. using 051 wire, is there a benefit to using a larger clevis with double ten blades?

In my opinion using a larger clevis equals less resistance. This only applies to .051 wire. I would say no benefit. If you want less resistance use #9 blades.
