Re: WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE TROUT LURE?
Impressive!!!!
The new 'XD' spinners....try them without a plastic keel. They are identical to Panther Martin spinners I tried prior to my stream fishing coming to an end. The shaft goes through the blade. I had an idea when using the 'panthers' that this design lessened line twist. Didn't get to test out the theory properly. I also think the blade will spin at slower speeds than the normal spinner design. They catch fish!
As for my all time favorite trout lure...the discontinued Jensen Insect.

Re: WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE TROUT LURE?
Thanks Jim, yes the blade does rotate a little slower from what I was told.. the Mepps XD lures have been around for a very long time it's just that I've never bothered to try them until I decided to get a few from Mepps & give them a go for them.. Yes I'll give them a go without the anti-kink too Jim..
here's a little something of interest I came across several years ago..

Re: WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE TROUT LURE?
You should have tried them out before!!! I think the blade design may also make them a bit more snag resistant as well.

Expects a 500,000 page report by Meppstas on the performance of the xd, on my desk by Monday morning, even if the seadon is still closed!!!!!!
