What are the differences among Willow/Indiana/Colorado blades as far as performance and best application? Ditto on blade combinations versus single blades?
• The main difference among the blade styles is the amount of vibration they put off. The Colorado puts off the most vibration with the Willowleaf putting off the least. The Indiana falls in between the two. However, the exact opposite is true regarding the amount of reflection or flash put off by the blades. Here, the Willowleaf is best and the Colorado the least. Regarding “lift” (blade action causing the bait to rise toward the surface during retrieve), the Colorado is tops with the Willowleaf offering less resistance and thus being slower to rise. Like with all choices regarding baits, the better application must be determined by you based on what conditions you face As for blade configurations, I use two main factors to choose which blades I will use. The first is the type of cover – the heavier the cover, the more slender I want my blade “package” to be, thus, a single or double Willowleaf configuration would be my selection. If there is sparse cover, I would go to a single or do
