| Fish an Inline Special much like you would a spinnerbait. Fast, slow. Shallow, deep. The difference is more in how the fish perceives the "edge" or silhouette of this lure rather than your needing to work this tool in any special way. You'll find some situations where one tool is more useful than the other. Don't fight it - make the switch. Load the boat.
Here are just some of the colors we have for the Inline Special™. Please see our color chart for all the fish-catching colors we offer in our blade baits. Some other popular ones: Black/White Tails, Black/Red Tails, Blaze Red/Black Tails, Blueback Herring/Black Tails, Lime Green/Black Tails, White/Black Tails, White/Red Tails, Yellow Perch. |

Color: Blue Shad Lengths: 7.5", 8.5" Weights: 1.0 oz, 1.5 oz Blade: Nickel Hook(s): 4/0Mustad 3551 Weedless 5/0 please add $1 Price: 7.5" single tail $10.50 Stock Number: SBIS01 Price: 8.5" double tail $13.50 Stock Number: SBIS02 |
| We have carefully crafted this color to mimic many knids of smaller baitfish. The soft, baby blue marabou "mingles" with the basic white "body" when retrieved. And, the off-white eggshell color marabou that we put on the belly provides the very realistic look of a fishes belly - an absolute key attractor when "fish are looking up"...which they are usually doing. Add the two, long schlappen tail feathers, and you've got one nice meal for Ms. Big. | |

Color: Black Crappie Lengths: 7.5", 8.5" Weights: 1.0 oz,1.5 oz Blade: Nickel Hook(s): 4/0Mustad 3551 Weedless 5/0 please add $1 Price: 7.5" single tail $10.50 Stock Number: SBIS01 Price: 8.5" double tail $13.50 Stock Number: SBIS02 |
| This is another of our custom colors. We build on a basic white marabou body with our own custom black-tipped marabou. We then add a specific amount of grey to the back to be most anatomically correct. Then add the eggshell belly feathers. Finally, the two long, black schlappens as "kickers" are the icing on top. | |

Color: Fire Tiger Lengths: 7.5", 8.5" Weights: 1.0 oz, 1.5 oz Blade: Black Hook(s): 4/0Mustad 3551 Weedless 5/0 please add $1 Price: 7.5" single tail $10.50 Stock Number: SBIS01 Price: 8.5" double tail $13.50 Stock Number: SBIS02 |
| We're still not sure why this color can be so good at times! But it is, and here's how we make it: We combine our own custom colors of Lime, Chartreuse and Hot Orange in very specific amounts. The two, long black schlappen feathers that twist and flap behind the lure are the final components of this great color. | |
BLADE STYLE AND SIZE OPTIONS: Our standard and most popular blade style and size for the Musky Inline Special is the Fluted Indiana #7. Unless you specify otherwise, this will be the way we send it. This blade allows sufficient "lift" to keep the lure up, but also spins nicely at a slower retrieve when you need deeper coverage - i.e. hugging underwater weed contours. This blade also thumps very nicely. However, some folks prefer a Colorado or a Willow on their inline spinners. So we offer you blades in the following styles and sizes: Colorado #5 thru #7; Willow #5 thru #7; Fluted Indiana #5 thru #8. Your choice - just tell us how you want it! |

The Inline Special Spinner Remember when you first started fishing for game fish? You probably threw a small inline spinner. And you caught fish! All kinds. Come back home to the natural shape of bait! The fish haven't changed their natural instinct to attack this silhouette. Some Inline Specials feature weedless hooks, so go ahead and drag them over wood all day - if you'd have started this deadly technique with a Meat and Potatoes Tackle Inline Special years ago, you'd never have left home! Hand selected marabou quills. Hand tied. This lure shows a shimmy that fish just won't let pass. Predators (with fish or fur) react instinctively to the silhouette Mother Nature programmed them to recognize as food. Use this to your advantage with every cast with the Inline Special series. |
