fish hawg check out the dec-jan issue of STS. They have several tips for throwing spinners in the Editorial and How-tips sections of the issue.
I'm working on getting my first steelhead on a spinner also. Most people recommend blue or or green bodied with crome or black blade depending on the conditions. I think its black for bright days and clear water, while crome is best for overcast or low water viz conditions. Again, I havnt caught 1 yet so i could be wrong. laugh
