Anyone use these with success?

How do you rig them?

Dodger/ no dodger ?

A little birdy told me they worked well in OR in front of hoochies, but I've never really heard of anyone using them in CA.

Thanks,

I remember when they actually used to "glow". I've seen a bunch of the bodies in different tackle shops and noticed they don't glow anymore. At least the ones I've been finding anyways. I recently made some body and bead spinners out of them. I'm going to run them behind a dodger.

When you say "in front of hootchies", I've seen some pictures on here where the real big spin & glow bodies are run in front like an attractor and a lure is run off the back with a short leader.

I've ran them Just like Dave has described and and pictured behind a dodger and had great success with them. I run them back around 18 inches
 
Nice looking lure SD. I need to try those out.

Just checked on Cabelas and those SnGs aren't cheap considering they're only part of your lure.

Check some of the lure parts sites rather than cabelas. When it comes to tackle parts, Cabelas is my last ditch choice because of the price.
 
When I fished Wolalla Lake 2 yrs ago we had trouble adjusting to the blue water we asked at the sport shop they introduced us to a willow leaf flasher and there was a very small red/bk fins spin glow being used above the two hook. It was what the The local there at the lake used. The Kokanee sure love that flasher if that helps. They seem to work for us, first time I seen them used
 
I've run them like SuperD has pictured and also just above a squid body (hoochie) both with unknown success. My experience has been it's not the trigger. Either the fish were hitting almost anything we put down or they weren't cooperating at all. They definitely weren't the trigger to my success.
 
The spin-n-glos are commonly used for Lake Trout on Lake Superior. They run them about 14" behind a 11" dodger at a speed that causes the dodger to spin, not rocking back and forth. Troll speed 1.52 mph for Lakers. Haven't tried them for Kokes yet.
