Rapid Robert Spawner Registered: 01/11/02 Posts: 624 Loc: Selah Wa.	Fished with PP member Duane Rouse(Troller) on Tuesday @ the Klickitat, while trolling plugs for Coho, Duane was casting a gold Rvrfshr hoochie spinner and guess what... Thanks for a great product!

chrome demon Returning Adult Registered: 05/28/08 Posts: 346 Loc: Seattle, WA	Originally Posted By: Todd Andy, you can get reflective tape and hootchies at most shops...Sportco in Fife and OE in Seattle have both, as I'm sure many other stores do. I'm looking into securing some rubber squid for this purpose, in bulk, to make available to our customers on a seasonal basis...if I get that done, I'll let you know here. Fish on... Todd you can also buy the WTP products direct from their website if you want something more obscure. OE typically has the usual pinks, flame, glow in the dark and maybe yellow chart. Three River's selection is about the same. I know that Todd and Joe like them round like the spinner blade, but I typically buy them in the sheet packs and cut them in rectangular sections. Fisherman's in Portland is another good source for tape. _________________________ release wild steelhead

GutZ The Original Boat Ho Registered: 02/08/00 Posts: 2917 Loc: Bellevue	Originally Posted By: Todd My usual color combos are silver w/ orange or pink hootchie for colored or big water, and Gold or Copper with blue or green hootchies for clear water...that's about as technical as I get on the colors. Fish on... Todd Can you hook me up (haha) with 3 gold,3 copper and 4 silver #5's? _________________________ It's good to have friends It's better to have friends with boats *GutZ*

Todd Dick Nipples Registered: 03/08/99 Posts: 27838 Loc: Seattle, Washington USA	GutZ...if you want to get a few different colors, order a ten pack of any #5 off the website but send an email, too, saying what you'd like...I can make up a combination of colors for you easily enough... Nice pic, RR...that must have been a nice surprise when the ten pound coho he thought he hooked turned out to be that beast! Fish on... Todd _________________________ Team Flying Super Ditch Pickle

TanTastic84 Juvenile at Sea Registered: 10/21/11 Posts: 176 Loc: Seattle, WA	I made some spinners using lead worm sinkers as bodies. I also used a #4 French blade for the spinner. But the ones I made with the hoochies had a lot of trouble spinning. I was pretty disappointed. I might have to narrow down the weight I use or I might have to actually use a steel bearing between the clevis and body. I don't know what the answer is. I'm trying to figure out how to post a picture of my spinner. I have some other options for bodies, but I guess they will have to be made and tried out Thursday.
