I have designed and manufactured spinnerbaits years ago. I absolutely love the Megabass SV 3. The head is designed to keep the bait from rolling when you burn it. I got pounded about the stiffness of the wire when everyone was making thinner and thinner wires. My bait retailed for $3.50 and everyone bitched about that. This Megabass bait is as close to perfection as a spinner bait can be.

Sorry, you are right, I didn't see the entire post because to do so stopped the video I am watching. I doubt you threw the detailed spinnerbait in the same spot. That's a big difference too. I will admit I don't have that kind of visibility either. The 200 acre lake is best in the fall at less than three feet. The other spring fed lake about 30 miles away is gin clear but it's silt bottom and I can only see as far as I can push a bait down with my rod. It's too dark to see the bottom and it max depth it 70 feet. I don't throw real flashy baits in those conditions (except traps). If you believe it makes a difference, go for it.

Lots of enthusiasm from you on this. I actually stopped using R bend spinnerbaits back in the late 80's after they regularly broke while fighting big smallest. The vibration of the upper arm seemed to weaken the wire in the R. The twisted eye baits, if they broke, would break above the line tie and allow you to still land the fish. .035 wire

Well Randy, is one my favorites to fish of all time. I river fish 80 percent of the time. I've fished spinnerbait over 40 years. Best outta of the package, for me where I fish, would be strike king kvd spinnerbait, with his signature on willow blade. 3/8, and 1/2 once are ones I use. They track straight good components for 7 dollar spinnerbait, for the money #1, then covert Jason Cristie booyah also a good one for package spinners. I've never fished the LV3 by meggabass, but I will soon, ordering some this week! Stay tuned.....

My wife and I were in Maine this past August for a week long fishing trip. She threw a 1/2 oz SV3 for the whole week, Nothing else... she caught at least 100 SMB and LMB (and a few chain pickerel) on that one bait. I did not have to straighten it out at all! It ran true the whole week. I also used a SV3 quite a bit, and that also ran true the whole week with no adjustments needed. I never would have believed it if I hadn't seen it. I would have gone through a bunch of Revenge and Strike King otherwise, which means it's actually cheaper to buy the more expensive spinnerbait. Love the SV3's!
@senorbass87373 жыл бұрын
Couldn’t agree more. I think the Megabass SV3 is the best spinner bait. It has all the right components and it’s more of a compact spinner bait in my opinion. I think the other spinner bait that comes close to this one has to be Strike Kings Premier Plus Colorado Willow spinner bait. It doesn’t have the thicker silicone skirt but it does extent out and it has a great pulsating action to it. I always use the 3/8oz on 12lbs floro with a MH rod. Hands down SV3 all the way chartreuse and white is my favorite go to color.

I have a book by Jimmy Houston on Spinnerbait fishing. I think it was published in 1975. He says to start every new day with a fresh bait to avoid breaking them. Bass fishing is expensive, a wire Spinnerbait frame and hook can be had for less than $2 from any lure components supply house. I love Spinnerbaits and almost never fish without having one on the deck, probably caught more fish on one than any other bait.

The Accent 3 blade is a strong competitor, honestly, I like the Accent better. The negative is its a very light wire and you will got through 2-3 in a day when they are on a spinnerbait. Saying that I believe that is what makes them get bites more.

Spinnerbaits are good tools Roland Martin used to say if he could only have one bait to fish it would be a spinnerbait.From the past to the present they have been made in a million different shapes and sizes. Different geographic locations seems to prefer their own favorite type. After trying to keep up with all the new and trendy baits I have been throwing a bladed jig in its place. I love throwing spinnerbaits and after watching your video I may have to pick them up again in the spring. They can cover the hole water column from top to bottom. They are one of favorite baits to fish at nighttime on Dale Hollow. A 1oz Stan Stone in black or purple with a big Colorado blade is a good choice .
