Patoka bass seem to shortstrike the ole buzzbait and spinner....AT least they do for me.
Also, I started throwing a buzzbait with a BIGGER blade, so I can slow it down.....that helped in the past.

Yes used a trailer hook - used different sizes - tried different types double blade and finally the old triple wing was what they wanted to kill - hook up ratio was low - but the blowups kept it interesting!
