What it is
Patent-pending trolling lure shaped to fish like a 3.5 Colorado blade behind a flasher. Slides onto your leader with beads and trailing hooks. Hand-finished in the USA with UV stickers and a clear seal.
How to fish it
Behind a 360 flasher for fall salmon. Triangle flasher or 360 for springers and June hogs. Dodger for kokanee. Pair with a hoochie for coho. See the rigging guide for the full setup.
Common questions
What flasher should I run?
Any flasher you already trust. 360 flashers for fall salmon, triangle flashers for springers, dodgers for kokanee. The Tater Tot's job is to whip behind whatever flash you choose.
Is it really patent-pending?
Yes. Patent applications filed with the USPTO (August 2025 and April 2026).
Are hooks and beads included?
No. The 2-pack is the lure body only. You rig it onto your leader with your own beads and trailing hooks, the same way you'd rig a 3.5 Colorado spinner blade.
What leader weight should I use?
Match your normal local rigging for the species:
- Salmon: 40 lb monofilament
- Steelhead: 20 lb
- Kokanee: 12 lb or lighter
What hook do you recommend?
For salmon: a size 2 or 4 treble below the lure, with an optional bait trailer.
For steelhead and kokanee: match your normal local rigging. The Tater Tot rigs like a soft spinner with your own beads and hooks, so there's no wrong setup.
What troll speed works best?
The flasher dictates the speed, not the Tater Tot. The lure works across the speed range your flasher is built for — slower for kokanee and steelhead, faster for fall Chinook. Match your normal trolling speed for whatever flasher you're running.
When will out-of-stock colors ship?
About 2 weeks from order date. We print and finish each batch by hand in Washington state.
Why isn't my Tater Tot spinning?
Two common reasons:
- Rigged upside down. Remember: fins up.
- Junk on the line. That fine green hair algae will kill the spin. Clean it off.
Rigged right and clean, the Tater Tot should spin the moment it hits the water.
What size and how many beads do I need?
5-6 mm beads work great. Two beads is all you need for a typical rig — just be sure to clear your hooks, bait, or hoochie so the body can spin freely.
