Smile Blade® SpinDrift® Walleye

$5.59
Description Details Tips The presentation of the Smile Blade SpinDrift Walleye matches a Smile Blade and Cha Cha Float with the VMC SpinDrift swivel-to-hook system to create a deadly walleye trolling lure. Does the swivel on the SpinDrift hook scare fish away? No, the swivel-to-hook system creates a rolling action on the bait and is typically covered by the bait. Does the single hook work as well as a two-hook set up like a crawler harness? Yes, with the slow roll created by the technical bend in the SpinDrift hook, it triggers the fish to want to attack or bite a little differently. You're also likely using a smaller piece of crawler, so it is a more compact lure.

When to Use

The Smile Blade SpinDrift Walleye is ideal for trolling in freshwater environments. It mimics the action of baitfish, making it effective for various species, including walleye and perch.
