Title: Doe anyone know what this is made for?
Post by: Fishaholic on January 09, 2014, 02:28:32 PM: Found them in an old tackle box I forgot about. Anyone know how to use them?

Trail a hook and bait behind it from the snap ring.

I can't tell from the pic what size it is, but I use a larger 2 spinner model for trolling for kokanee.

Seriously, what a couple others have already said. You can use them for just about anything really.

I used the ones I had for kokanee. Pretty much what Scout/Sniper said.

Like you said, they are good for a lot of things.
I always take several out with me.

I have a few with mother of pearl type blades that work well too. A great addition to your light tackle.
