Fyi. I do not use these worm burners until after the water temp hits around 55 degrees. As a rule of thumb it is hard to catch walleye on a worm until the water temp is somewhere around 55 degrees.. In my humble opinion. .

I'm with Skipper9, except I run both cranks and worms at 53 degree's. There are day's where it can make all the difference. I proved that to "the Migrator" (Dennis) many years ago.
I can only hope I have earned the freedom that has been given me.

WHAT'S UP! Thanks guys
I have seen the ones skipper 9 show, but the ones ebijack showed were the ones Ihad Q's about. Most had the treble hooks. I was also looking to see if you used wire mono. Over the years I have learned how to tie a mean wormharness
Thanks again for the pic. Good fishing to all

If the worm burner/worm harness is to heavy in the rear the spoon will not react and flutter the way they should. They just plow along in the water and flutter every now and then, that has been my experience anyhow. I feel mono, braid(Fireline Crystal) or floro works the best on them if they are home made, the wire seems to be to stiff and I feel it limits the spoons movements. I also use 2 number 2 hooks instead of the treble set up. The closer to the spoon that first hook is the better and it will increase your hookup rate.

Besides what Wakina states, the ones I run actually work best at slower speeds from .8 to 1.5 when using crawlers. And most fish come on the front hook.

I started tying up spoon harnesses last year after a few pointers from ebijack. did pretty well on them. As a rule when it got to worm season I would try to run 2-3 out of my spread with them and the balance in regular harnesses and scorpion spoons. I had no problem catching fish on them from 1.8-2.5 mph. I used 17# vicious last year, but broke off a couple hooks in the net, so I switched up to 20# seagar this year.

WHAT'S UP!- Just the stuff I whated to hear.I use 20 # vanish floro. Q about the beads? Do this add weight? One thing is clear' whoever thought this up is smart I love using spoons and harness have always worked good. The two should be even better
one more Q how long a leader, and how far apart are the hooks 2" or 2.5"? Good fishing to all !
