We could write a book here! I run one slow death and one spinner most of the time unless something is really kicking butt. I change spinner size, color about every ten minutes until something gets hit. Bright days metals work best and dark day dark work best. Size 2 to size 6. All different make (Colorado, Indiana, willow hatchet). Day in and out a size 4 is were I start. Bright silver or gold and then firetiger, orange.
With slow death as stated a naked one can be great. Also with slow death there are different manufactures of hooks that all swim a bit different. Some days one will take over. We've been playing with a Matzuo hook and it's been the ticket if everyone in running a Mustad hook, Trokars are my favorite day in and out. I run those on a tournament day, they are expensive. Some time just a bead ahead of the hook works great. I've been running a stinger hook with slow death on day when the fish are nipping and it can make for a great day that no else will figure out. Smiley blades were made for slow death but I run it about 5" in front of the hook blocked by a swivel. Also small prop spinners with one bead rock.
Hope this helps a bit.
