Can you use a bottom bait on a spinner rig?
The Spinner Rig is almost always used with pop-up hookbaits, but there is nothing to stop you attaching a bottom bait or wafter to one. The mechanics of the rig will still function, though the swivel, hook and shrink tube will be much more visible as they won’t be suspended beneath a buoyant bait.
