Here a spinnerbait tip for you.

One problem many anglers have is tying a polomar knot on a spinnerbait. The wire arm, swivel and blades often get caught up and tangled in the fishing line when trying to tie the polomar knot. Plus you need such a big loop to clear the wire frame. Next time, slip the point of the hook into the spinnerbaits split ring attached to the blade. This will create a much smaller profile and help keep the arm and blades out of the way while your tying your knot. In the photo, the spinnerbait on the left is wide open, while the spinnerbait on the right has the hook point inside the split ring. You can see how the colapsed frame will make tying your knot much easier. Thats my handy tip for today.
