Frequently Asked Questions
Spinners Frequently Asked Questions
Q. What are fishing spinners used for?
Fishing spinners are designed to attract fish using flash and vibration. As the blade spins through the water, it mimics baitfish and triggers strikes from species like trout, bass, and salmon.
Q. What fish can you catch with spinners?
Spinners are highly effective for trout, salmon, bass, pike, and panfish. They are especially popular in rivers, streams, and lakes where fish are actively feeding.
Q. How do you fish with a spinner?
Spinners are typically cast out and retrieved at a steady speed to keep the blade spinning. Varying your retrieve speed or adding pauses can help trigger more strikes depending on conditions.
Q. What size spinner should I use?
Smaller spinners (1/16–1/8 oz) are ideal for trout and panfish, while larger spinners (1/4 oz and up) work better for bass, salmon, and bigger freshwater species.
Q. What colours work best for fishing spinners?
Silver and gold are classic choices for clear water, while brighter colours like chartreuse, red, and fluorescent patterns work well in stained or low-light conditions.
Q. Are inline spinners good for beginners?
Yes, inline spinners are one of the easiest and most effective lures for beginners. They are simple to use, require minimal setup, and consistently catch fish in a wide range of conditions.
Q. Can you use spinners in rivers and lakes?
Yes, spinners are versatile and work well in both rivers and lakes. They are especially effective in moving water where the current helps activate the blade.
Q. Do spinners work for salmon fishing?
Yes, larger spinners can be effective for salmon, especially in rivers and nearshore environments. Choosing the right size and colour for water conditions is key.
Q. What brands of fishing spinners do you carry?
The Harbour Chandler carries trusted spinner brands like Blue Fox and Danielson, offering proven designs that deliver consistent results for freshwater fishing.

Safety and Peace of Mind
Awesome product very simple to install. A bit of wire cutting and splicing. Pretty much plug and play. Can’t put a price on safety of your family or protecting the value of your boat. Most insurance companies will also give you a discount if you use this product. This product is well worth the investment and peace of mind.

Octopus hooks
I use octopus hooks, tied in tandem, for my hootchies, trolling for Kokanee. They are strong and sharp. Thank you for the great pricing on these hooks.

Harbour Chandler service was great
Harbour Chandler service was great, the Victron MK3 worked exactly as advertised, so all good. The question remains as to why I had to buy a programming interface to set the batteries to LiFePO4 instead of allowing the setting in Victron Connect iOS in the first place.
