    Thanks for the update.

    Yes thanks for the feed back. I know the little 1/32 Oz Roadrunners I use have no problems with the Willow spinning and I use a size 0 from Worth. I have tried a #1 and will work, but the little 0 is made for it. The Willow Leaf is best if fishing grass like here we have Hydrilla and the Willow has less trouble with coming through the grass clean. We always fish them slow and even long-lining I go between .4 MPH and .8 MPH with more lean to the .4 MPH. When we have had to cast them to catch crappie (only one time in like the last 18 years) in the spring, we had to cast right to the edge of the grass line around the banks and reel as slow as possible to get bit. This happened last year when we had so much too much water from all the rains and they had to open our flood gates for an extended time. It really fouled up the fishing and one day you could catch them trolling my way and next you couldn't and had to cast to the weed lines.
