Fishing spinners for walleye is a tactic that comes with some specific components when it comes to the rig, and you should utilize the proper setup to make the most out of your presentation.
Northern Minnesota guide Colt Anderson shares his go-to setup for fishing spinners with clients, and it starts with a good rod. Anderson uses the JT Black Reign 7’3″ medium spinning rod for his spinner stick, which handles a 1-2 ounce weight well when fishing spinners across deep flats. The medium power is also great for getting quality hooks sets in depths from 12-25 feet. For his main line, he spools up 10-pound braid for increased sensitivity when feeling your way across bottom types and detecting subtle bites.
