Please put pisture if you can.

SJ,

Tie it on with a Palomar or Trilene Knot. Make a cast and see if the lure runs true, not rolling over, with the blade(s) turning freely and ABOVE the body of the lure.

tie it at the bend in the wire frame..........

Absolutely NO SWIVELS, always use a knot, the swivel will move around, and ruin it's action. I use a improved clinch, but, I always use a clinch. I tried tying a trilene knot, which is kind of like a clinch, and I lost a fish on on it.

hope this helps ya visualize

Why not swivels? If you use one, an a piece of rubber tubing before the swivel goes on, it makes for quick changes, without the swivel going all around the R bend?( I believe it was PNJ who taught me that) Also the extra flash up front might be the little ticket needed for a better hit, or more hits. Not saying that either way is better, but they are different options. Espeically for those with bad eyes, who have a hard time tying their rigs sometimes . I would think that the swivel, could help sometimes, but of course that's just MY OPINION

Well your right, I have not heard that, I just normally dont use swivels, because they will side around, and ruin the action. I'll try to remeber that trick.

i wonder just who ya learned this from? him i supose -am pointing at tom-let me state it loud and clear. a swivel will make a spinner bait rotate a round and round on the retrive. yes i know there are times this works.. a spinner bait tied with a KNOT will if tuned properly run straight. important when contacting obstructions in the water... a spinner bait that is running at 3 and 9 WILL be 75% more likly to hang up..think about it..
