ParkerFly 8 Posted February 11, 2019 Report Share Posted February 11, 2019 Picasso makes a cool spinnerbait with an Indiana main blade and a willow kicker. In my mixed condition fisheries here in Tulsa, seems like it would be a good fit. Can't find ANYWHERE what size blades they're using. Indiana blades in particular are hard for me to size. Any ideas?

cadman 571 Posted February 11, 2019 Report Share Posted February 11, 2019 If you have a Picasso spinnerbait, measure the blade and start calling blade companies. Tell them the size you have and see if that matches their size blades. If not go on to the next company. Can find a lot of this by looking on the i-net. Eventually someone will have a blade close to what you want. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Just wanting to make a small quantity, and was hoping someone would have a Picasso lying around and could give me a ballpark. I don't happen to have one on hand and that model isn't sold locally.

kage_killa 10 Posted February 11, 2019 Report Share Posted February 11, 2019 I found a sizing chart, not sure if that will help https://www.tacklecrafting.com/baits/wb_size_chart/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Munkin 81 Posted February 11, 2019 Report Share Posted February 11, 2019 https://www.picassooutdoors.com/Picasso_Spinnerbaits_Willow_Indiana_p/psb-wi.htm By the looks of this I would say it is a size 6 maybe 7. Allen Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JBarlow 73 Posted February 11, 2019 Report Share Posted February 11, 2019 Be careful when using size charts. Not all companies use the same size charts. The blade manufacturers do not have a standard when it comes to sizing. A size 6 from one manufacturer may not be the same length as a size 6 from a different manufacturer or company. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Found that out the hard way myself. Allen Quote Link to post Share on other sites
