I've thought about putting a spinner on a popper but haven't done it yet.

Hey guys, I was just "funning" about the buzzbait... well not really, I do throw those small buzzbaits with some plastic added exclusively for topwater bass fishing (white only!!) but I would never put a spinner or any other hardware on a fly.... just throw a buzzbait if you're going to do that... its a lot more efficient.

Hi Darian,

I knew I should've put in my post, "beads excluded". I thought about it but was too darn lazy to type it. Rattles are pushing it though but I don't really care what you put on your flies. To me, you just don't need to add that stuff to your flies... they make spinners already, and if you want to use one, then get the spin-gear out and use one.. it's much easier than casting and retreiving that stuff with spin gear so why waste ur time flogging it around on a fly rod???

Hey Jeff,.... Good points all.... Just curious if anyone uses blades on their flies or has experimented with 'em. A lot of antique fly tiers incorporated blades in their patterns with some exotic materials (feathers/furs).
