Thanks.  I know you also like walleye spinners in Fire Tiger.  I gotta get you a sample of that new model whirly flig using the small buzz blade.  That blade whirls like crazy at even the lowest speeds.  And it really sends out the vibrations.  The hits I got on it were hard...with the fish gulping down the whole crawler rig...not just the tail hook.  Also, making them up with a slight "drop back" from the lure body seems to work better than having the top hook attached directly to the lure.  Even though I kept changing around with different colors and setups I got three of my six keeper walleyes on the buzz model.

Would love to give them a try, with the off color water I’m sure the extra vibration helps get them to come investigate
Interestingly enough, the fire tiger color works for me all year...in all water conditions...especially for perch and walleye.  But have caught plenty of wipers and cats on it too...even in summer...but especially again in the fall. 

So far I don't have a lot made up.  Still in the "bait-A" test program...not in major production mode yet.  But I will happily squeeze out a sample for ya.  Also making up some new chatterbait designs.  I have caught fish on chatterbait lures in Willard in the past so I am confident the "chatter crawler" rig will get some love too.  I tried it only briefly on this trip but that was during the low slow period early when I was getting no action on anything.  However, I did love the super vibration that came up the line even at fairly slow speeds.
