Bassdozer's Spinnerbaits
"Don't you love
catching bass on spinnerbaits? From topwater to deep structure, fast to slow,
in thick cover and open water, day or night, spinnerbaits can do it all.
I make my own because there's no where else or no other way I can get precisely
what works best for me - the overall balance, blades, spacing, wire diameter,
components and colors I know I can depend on to produce quality bass when all
else fails." - Russ Bassdozer
Not all spinnerbaits are created equal. Not all spinnerbaits are created as
good as these. Exhaustive research and testing makes these the best
spinnerbaits they possibly can be. Customized with expert attention to every
detail, using only the finest blades, skirts and components. Fish with
confidence when you fish with Bassdozer's spinnerbaits.
- Heads designed, spin-cast and
custom painted for Bassdozer by Cast Industries,
the USA's leading manufacturer of premium spinnerbait, buzzbait and jig
heads. Extremely durable, attractive finishes.
- Premium Mustad Ultra Point long shank, wide gap hooks
are ultra-sharp and super strong. May be the best spinnerbait hook on the
market.
- Only the most productive
blades (based on fishing results) are selected from Worth, Lakeland
and Hagen's, the USA's three leading
manufacturers of premium spinnerbait blades.
- Worth
ball bearing swivels made in USA. One of the two best
spinnerbait swivels on the market. Keeps blades turning even at slow
speeds. Extra large split rings make blade changes easy.

All have 44 to 50 forward and backward-facing strands. Super soft for
pulsating breathing skirt action.

All have 70 one-way silicone strands. Back, belly and side colors (in 5
strand increments) are locked permanently in place by a small rubber
center hub that creates a perfect “umbrella” profile that appears even
and balanced with a light, airy, billowy and attractive "full yet sparse"
look.
- High quality spring tempered stainless steel wire arms.
- No
plastic parts, beads or spacers to break or crack. Top quality
components are all metal.

|

Table Rock Shad. A popular, productive
color in jerkbaits and crankbaits. Bassdozer is the first to offer this
stunning skirt color for spinnerbaits and jigs too.
|

Purple Chartreuse. There's no stopping
Bassdozer's innovative spirit. This productive jerkbait and crankbait color
is now available for the first time in a Bassdozer custom skirt. Be the first
to show the bass on your home lake this hot new Bassdozer original.
|
|

Shad-A-Delic. Oh yeah, baby!
Bassdozer's favorite custom shad pattern skirt in his own special
blend of three groovy shad-a-delic colors.
|

Super Silver Shad. Shad are among the
shiniest meals a bass is ever likely to eat - and so are these dazzlingly
brilliant Bassdozer skirts! Half silver foil fish scale imprint on both
sides. Half bright silver hologram. Skirts so shiny and flashy, the bass may
need to wear sunglasses.
|
|

Golden Shiner. This skirt has
highly-reflective gold and pale green crystals that light up and shine in
clear water. Plus a golden black fish scale accent. Smallmouth go nuts over
this.
|

Chartreuse/White. The best and most
popular spinnerbait skirt color in history. Several of the sport's top
celebrity anglers have made their careers by throwing chartreuse/white
spinnerbaits.
|
|

White Shad. Half metallic white. The
other half is silver neon. Bassdozer put the two halves together to make the
perfect shad sandwich!
|

Summer Shad. Half superfine silver.
Half clear with pale green or pale blue hologram. Plus a silvery black fish
scale accent. Shad may show an aqua blue or pale green tinge at any time of
year, but especially from mid-summer (blue) to early autumn (green).
|
|

Blue Chartreuse. A tremendously popular
crankbait color these days. This fantastic color is now available in a
Bassdozer custom skirt.
|

Black Chartreuse. Bassdozer fashioned
this awesome custom skirt to resemble the Bagley crankbait color used by
Takahiro Omori to win the 2004 CITGO Bassmaster Classic.
|
|

Fire Tiger. So many anglers have
experienced good catches with fire tiger crankbaits, that some manufacturers
claim it is their top crankbait color. Now Bassdozer has fired up this highly
productive custom skirt color!
|

Golden Monkey Shine. Most people who
see this custom Bassdozer color will never try it. Their mistake. It's kind
of a cross between chartreuse pepper and watermelon pepper - and it catches a
ton of fish. It has a golden black fish scale accent.
|
|

Green Sunfish. Most bass lures are
designed to imitate shad, shiners, minnows and crayfish, but make no mistake,
sunfish are present everywhere bass are, and they are a staple food in
bass diets.
|

Brown Sunfish. You read and hear a
whole lot more about shad, shiners, minnows and crayfish, but don't let that
fool you. Bass eat sunfish all the time everywhere.
|
|

Black/Blue. The number one color in
flipping jigs and soft plastics. Bassdozer designed this custom-blended
black/blue beauty to be truly great. The perfect portion of reflective blue
foil adds a lifelike shine and flash. Royal blue tips add the perfect
contrasting kick of blue tip color.
|
Bassdozer says: "When fish are hitting
your spinnerbait but don't get hooked, they're telling you your spinnerbait
is pretty close to what they want - but something's still not quite right.
One of the easiest things you can do is turn the
skirt upside down. Bass may be striking from an angle that puts
the wire blade arm directly in their path, blocking the hook point. Turning
the skirt upside down may change the attack angle so that bass do not hit the
wire blade arm first. I have seen this simple trick pay off big, and even win
tournaments!"

Which Skirt to Use When?
The spinnerbait is a versatile and complex lure. The choice of skirt color
can be as important as the choice of blade shapes, sizes and colors. A chartreuse/white skirt is by far the most popular
choice. A solid white skirt (with
optional color accent strands or various flakes) is good too. A solid black skirt (optionally with blue, red,
purple or chartreuse accent strands) can work anywhere, any time from gin clear
to jet black water. I like fire tiger
skirts when water is muddier than usual or in grass beds with limited
visibility due to dense vegetation. Fire tiger also works well in early spring
and late fall when bass are up shallow and aggressive. Lots of people use solid
chartreuse, but I personally don't like it. I have seen a few too many fish
bolt and run from solid chartreuse spinnerbaits, only to circle back and smoke
something more natural like a jig/pig or tubebait. However, I do like half chartreuse skirts, with half another color.
At night, I consistently use a solid white or solid black skirt (optionally
with blue, red, purple or chartreuse accent strands in it).
Fact is, you can use any color on a spinnerbait skirt that matches whatever
you would use on a rubber jig, a soft plastic bait or crankbait. If there is
some lure of a certain color that you have been doing well with, match the
color on a spinnerbait. Chances are you will do well with that color
spinnerbait too.
And yes indeed, you can use any crawdad colors on a spinnerbait and do well
- blacks, browns, greens - with orange, red or blue accent strands. After all,
a spinnerbait is just a bass jig wearing a flashy earring or two on it. Try
black/red, black/blue, brown/orange, brown/purple, watermelon/red, green
pumpkin - whatever works best on jig type lures or soft plastics will also work
great on spinnerbaits.

Bassdozer says: "The three most
popular kinds of soft plastic power fishing jig trailers are: 1) craw worms,
2) twin tail grubs and 3) imitation soft plastic pork chunks. Although all
three are used everywhere, there are regional favorites. The crawfish is used
more often as a jig trailer in northern tier states. The twin tail grub is
more common across the middle states from coast to coast. The soft plastic
pork chunk is the favored jig trailer of the Southeast."
