Many of the familiar inline spinners have 6 to 8 components; the FCS Armadillo has fourteen (14) components and the Paddlefish has eighteen (18). Thats a significant difference. As a result, FCS spinners are noisier on the line. The added components wobble and vibrate as the blade rotates and collides around them when the spinner is retrieved or trolled.
Another important difference is a lower ratio of brass. FCS uses glass, bone, and horn to reduce the ratio of brass avoiding the larger brass bodies found on other spinners. The fish don't mind the weight reduction and the sounds these new and different components transfer into the water more than compensates for the reduction in weight.
More components = different noise on the line = More fish attraction!
The fish 'are' getting smarter and the familiar mass marketed spinner that they have seen hundreds of times in their life, doesn't work as well as it once did. Larger fish are likely to have been caught and released many times in a season and its been observed they don't budge when the same familiar lure cruises by, several times a day. Fish are bored and getting older because we catch and release them. FCS spinners tip their scales back in our favor; a different but noisy alternative! Our presence expands cast by cast thanks to your purchases!
FCS spinners are made using high quality components, tested for performance, and packaged in reusable plastic tubes. Designs feature faceted firepolished glass beads combined with noise generating metal discs. The plastic tubes can be used to store spinners in your pocket while hiking or fishing (we call it Pocket Tackle) or used to organize your tacklebox.
