Thanks for the kind comments guys! I appreciate it! And, you are exactly right, this is a great site with dedicated fisherman, with a wealth of helpful info! Bragger, I prefer the #11 and use them on both the spinners and jigs. As far as size, I will use a 3/8 oz jig and spinner predominatley. However, if I'm fishing a point that has a deeper drop, I will use a 1/2 oz jig or spinner.
