This Little Go Getter Is A Bite Getter!

[@Glock-1]

I never even thought of trimming the skirt on a spinnerbait before but it makes perfect sense so I trimmed all of mine after this video! Thanks Matt

[@MattStefanFishing]

Glad I could help!

[@glenndaugherity6187]

Ryan hasn’t quit smilin for 3 days lol ! 😊

[@MattStefanFishing]

He’s always smiling!

[@PistolPete3322]

I like compact spinner baits. I pitch them into cover like a jig when the water is high.

[@MattStefanFishing]

Nice!

[@Nate_Higgins]

So fitting this video just came out. I've been consistent on small spinners this week. I lost the only one i had and I'm looking for more. Thanks man.

[@comfortablynumb9342]

I always see them at Walmart

[@MattStefanFishing]

Great to hear!

[@comfortablynumb9342]

Have you ever seen the Strike King Redfish Magic spinnerbaits? They're pretty simple Colorado blades but you can change the jig head and there's no skirt. I caught a redfish with one a couple days ago and it's the first time I actually caught a fish with a spinnerbait. The Trout Magic underspin type has been working for me for redfish and trout, and I am pretty sure both baits would be good for bass. Today I caught a 25" redfish in my kayak with 10 lb braid and a popping cork with a jig. That was a fun battle, they're strong fish that keep going. It's going to be good fish tacos in a little while.

[@MattStefanFishing]

I’ll check it out

[@shawnwhalen8314]

I really love a spinner bait .most of the year though weeds they excel. No trailer for me. Usually 3/8-1/2 oz blade depends on water clarity. I caught 35 Largemouth yesterday in the wind and cool late October on an area of lake St.Clair,Mi. plus 1 pike. Not bad this time of year. Gonna check these out. Thanks

[@siryarwammowray3445]

Nice I'm happy if I catch 3 fish awesome to catch that many well done

[@MattStefanFishing]

Right on

[@oldschoolfishing4194]

Thanks for sharing. Love it when you get to fish. I was born and raised in Rock Falls, IL...about 120 mi. west of Chicago right on Rt. 30. Left for the Air Force when I was 19 and have lived in Texas ever since. Love the Texas fishing.

[@MattStefanFishing]

i love texas as well

[@heinrichkellogg7563]

🍺Thanks Matt. The fall colors are certainly apparent.

[@MattStefanFishing]

got snow last night haha

[@rvfishingyet]

The firework jig is money, so I have wanted to try the catchco compact spinnerbait out. Can get those through Karls! Gotta appreciate Karl’s support to military overseas by shipping to military post office boxes. Look forward to trying this one out, thanks for the video Matt!

[@MattStefanFishing]

Thanks for sharing

[@mikeeller557]

Thanks Matt

[@MattStefanFishing]

You bet

[@rodcashman4793]

Matt I have some of these in the 1/2 oc. First First I caught was an 18" Smallie plus blacks. Works great regardless how fast you reel it. I didn't use a trailer. Great Spinnerbait 👍

[@MattStefanFishing]

Awesome

[@midwestfischerman]

312 and 773 in da HOUSE!!!!

[@MattStefanFishing]

haha!!!

[@Fisherman_83]

708 area code is mine lol

[@samuelschult985]

Didn't see the wire give issues that's always good, really liked the design 👍

[@MattStefanFishing]

im very impressed

[@sprinter144]

Nice review. I may be adding a few of these to my Christmas list.

[@MattStefanFishing]

You should!

[@davidbaker1359]

Love a spinner bait. Nothing like bumping it along a lay down or across the rocks. 👍🎣

[@MattStefanFishing]

so fun to fish!

[@Triple87]

I like that little firework jig. I’m definitely going to order a few of these and give ‘em a shot.

[@MattStefanFishing]

they make good stuff!

[@kyleayscue733]

👍👍👍 thanks Matt, I'm partial to War Eagle spinners but I'll definitely have to check these out they look great.

[@MattStefanFishing]

Thanks for watching

[@RorkesDriftVC]

Matt, what kind of knot did you tie? It looked like a San Diego jam knot. The spinner bait looks a lot like a War Eagle finesse spinnerbait. It's one of my favorites.

[@MattStefanFishing]

miller knot

[@stevesmith7164]

Good video Matt, I'll have to get some of those and give them a try, I use the compact Booyah spinnerbaits 👍

[@MattStefanFishing]

Go for it

[@randallsisk2065]

Nice to see it produce, what is clarity where you were fishing?

[@MattStefanFishing]

2.5fft

[@siryarwammowray3445]

Nice spinnerbait and fish catches also do you use the rocket shad that's my wife's go to bait catches all species of fish

[@MattStefanFishing]

I do and have had some good days with it

[@187bootleg]

I just got me a couple of those. Going to try the out tomorrow 👊

[@MattStefanFishing]

Good luck

[@johnnyweaver1300]

I could tell it was a great bait after you put in the water & let it swim a little, that's a bite I wish could be great again, in the past 5 yrs, bass here will not look at or not chase it, I'll check it out though, was that a yellow or a chartreuse color? Great video!👍

[@MattStefanFishing]

Chartreuse

[@markzajac5088]

Does it have a wide gap hook, and comes in with a black skirt. Also, does it thump good! Thank you Matt.

[@MattStefanFishing]

yes to all of those questions

[@RickyCarter-ro8fr]

Great video as usual,keep up the good work!

[@MattStefanFishing]

Thanks, will do!

[@toddlester8063]

Have you used the Bassman Compact spinnerbaits, Matt? These look pretty similar in compact size. How does this compare to those?

[@MattStefanFishing]

i have not

[@treymorey]

Matt, great video on the compact spinnerbait, I’ve got a question about spinnerbait wire durability. At what point do you essentially scrap them for parts or do you just wait for the untimely break to happen?

[@MattStefanFishing]

i will use them for practice or fun fishing if i think they hav been weakened but not in the tourney

[@treymorey]

@@MattStefanFishing thanks for the info do you have any tell tale signs you use for knowing when they’ve been weakened? Or do you just base it on how many times you have to bend them back to shape?

[@markclaerhout8844]

Nice spinnerbait, I’ll pick up a few from tackle warehouse. Also, what scissors did you use? I like the short but robust blades

[@MattStefanFishing]

they are electricians scissors

[@markclaerhout8844]

Thx

[@brianpierson7708]

I’m going to get some of them I fish rivers with undercuts like you fishing there and skip underneath the banks and anyone who fishes regular spinner baits know a big bait or blades will blow the best of us out 😂

[@MattStefanFishing]

They work great!

[@michaelsheppard4227]

Now I hardly ever throw 1/2 ounces spinner baits but that turtle back blade is straight money. I order them in #6 and #7 sizes and change out blades on most my spinner baits. I throw it 65% of the time.

[@MattStefanFishing]

awesome!

[@rodneychandler82]

Turtle Back blades work like a dream in Zimbabwe . Buddy lost a 15lb + on a recent trip . Snapped the spinnerbait in two

[@douglasspickler4925]

Good looking, SB. I fish turtle back blades myself. I like them. When you were in the investment world in Chicago, did you happen to work at Morningstar?

[@MattStefanFishing]

nope i worked for CBOT and then merged with CME

[@douglasspickler4925]

​@MattStefanFishing Thanks. Futures. When my promo boat deal ended, I purchased a Ranger with an oil Future contract.

[@tonytube7407]

what is the knot you used? It looks like a trilene knot, but not exactly.

[@MattStefanFishing]

Miller knot

[@spaceman61]

Matt, I want to pick up a cpl spinnerbaits, sv3’s are popular, what say you, sv3 or bite getter?

[@MattStefanFishing]

Man i do like both!

[@brucejarvis5664]

Just curious what boat are you fishing out of ?

[@MattStefanFishing]

video coming soon

[@kennethfilas7979]

Would a trailer hook be beneficial on this bait?

[@MattStefanFishing]

you could use one but i generally dont use them on spinnerbaits

[@rodcashman4793]

Also Matt forgot to say I fished this in brush didn't have any issues. I think it didn't snag as regular Spinnerbaits

[@MattStefanFishing]

Agreed

[@tranzformedyouthtn]

What knot was that?

[@MattStefanFishing]

Miller knot

[@Woefman911]

What was that knot ???

[@MattStefanFishing]

Miller knot

[@todayscatch5471]

fox river?

[@MattStefanFishing]

Nope

[@itllkeal]

Nice 👍

[@MattStefanFishing]
