Alright I am looking for a Caliber spinner. Long ago I bought this brand in Stanley, Idaho and it is a Italian made spinner. What's really unique about this spinner is that you can add attractants (sents and rattle beads) into the main body of the spinner and close it!

Anybody know where to find these spinners or contact this company? (I threw out the package a long time ago) or even similar products like it?
Occasionally they are on Ebay and a fourm that died out in 1997 had a member that asked about it and it said PM sent.[frown]

I have searched the google and all my local fish shops. They've never heard of spinners like that. Thanks for any info in advance.

BTW- I live in Utah.

there are a number of different products that can give you what you are looking for.

in this contry the term most used is Rattle or Rattler.

there are inline spinner attachments you can put in front of your bait, or you can get crank bait rattlers.

it is such a widely used practice that most every bait company has some type of rattler in their inventory.

but per say, lets see if this one matches what your are looking for?
thanks for your sharing. it is so informative
I love these hooks and am down to my last one. I too would love to find the company. They are not the same as a "rattler" best I can tell.

Here's what mine says on the spinner

I'll keep looking, but if someone manages to track these down, let me know.
