The Beetle Spin

One of the most effective lures in the spring for me has been the beetle spin. It is not only effective for bass fishing but can bring in those paper mouth crappie and the other panfish like bluegill.

What makes the beetle spin so effective is its versatility. Using the safety pin type spinner one can quickly change jig heads and bodies without having to re-tie line. You can also easily change out the soft bodies with different colors.

I have even gone as far as replacing the traditional beetle spin split tail body with plastic grubs and fish bodies. You can even remove the spinner altogether and use like a regular jig with whatever body you like.
