Spinners

There are times when it is necessary to fish a little deeper than a fly ordinarily sinks or when a plain fly fails to attract the attention of our whimsical quarry. When these conditions prevail the glitter of a tiny spinner often induces the fish to strike.

You will occasionally find an angler who objects to the spinner on the grounds that it is unsportsmanlike but some of the finest sportsmen I know will use a spinner when the bass or trout will take nothing else and under the circumstances I believe its use is justified.
