Description

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.

Field Notes

This is a compact walleye trolling rig built around a Smile Blade and SpinDrift hook system. It’s meant to be pulled slowly behind the boat with crawler pieces to create a rolling, fish-triggering presentation. Best used when you want a smaller profile than a traditional crawler harness.

Pros

  • Compact alternative to a crawler harness
  • Rolling action from the SpinDrift hook system
  • Designed specifically for trolling walleye

Cons

  • Requires trolling to fish effectively
  • Single-hook setup may be less familiar than standard harness rigs
