I use those on the jigheads that are made for crappie magnets. I always fish them under floats and just twitch them back to me every 10 seconds or so.
As far as spawn baits go, I fish the same things I fish all year long. I never really change with the season except for the depth I fish.

They have a new bait called the Mini-Magnet. I have a kit of one but was about to give it away to a fly guy. Then the reports started coming in on how good they are on trout. I catch plenty of trout using the Trout Magnet and don't see how my catch rate could go up....but I am going to try them. They are only 1/200 of an ounce. I will report on them when I get back wading at the Caney. I can just barely see the eye of the jig on them.
