Personally,

The number one thing to remember when using any spinner is……slow, slow, slow, and slower!

The speed that you retrieve your spinners may react differently with different types of blades. But Coho are suckers for slamming a spinner that is worked dead slow! The slower, the better! laugh

I can't tell how many times when I was guiding that my clients were standing right next to me using the same exact spinner, rod, and reel that I was using and never had a strike. I would hook 5 to 1 more coho then they would. I would tell them time after time to slow down there retrieve, but after a few casts they were right back to cranking it fast just like before.

Regardless of the lure that you decide to use, if you're fishing for salmon, remember to wind it slowly….especially if your after coho laugh
