What is Uncle Larry's Pro Snell?

The Pro Snell is a nightcrawler spinner rig built for big, aggressive fish. A precision bobber stop holds the spinner blade and beads away from the hook, so your threaded worm rides straight and true without bunching. That clean profile is what picky, hard-fighting trout, salmon, bass, and walleye want.

How do I fish the Pro Snell?

Tie the rig to your mainline or leader, then thread a full nightcrawler straight onto the hook so it sits flush and natural. Run it behind a dodger or troll it solo with a sliding weight. Best speeds are 1.1 to 1.8 mph for trout and salmon, slower for bass and walleye.

What makes the blade special?

Each Pro Snell blade wears up to 12 coats of color-layered paint for deep, lifelike flash and contrast. Serious anglers dialed in the finishes to trigger strikes. In early morning, overcast light, or stained water, the UV glow and bright orange flash act as fish magnets that pull bites.

What colors are offered?

The Pro Snell comes in 14 finishes, including Chart and Pearl, Black and Gold, Copper Clown, Fall Favorite, Orange Tiger, Silver Shad, and Power Whitey. Run brighter, high-contrast blades in stained water or low light, and more natural shad and perch tones when the water is clear.

What pairs well with the Pro Snell?

Pair it with Uncle Larry's UV Glow Tiger Spinners to cover low-light and deep, stained water. Both rigs thread a nightcrawler and use the bobber-stop design that keeps the blade off the hook. Carry both so you can match blade color and glow to the conditions you find.

Uncle Larry’s Pro Snells are built for the angler who wants to run a nightcrawler behind a spinner in the presentation that produces big trout, salmon, and walleye when they’re feeding on natural forage. The pre-tied snell threading design lets you run the worm naturally extended behind the blade without folding or bunching, producing the straight-swimming action that triggers strikes from aggressive fish. Available in 14 color patterns covering the kokanee and trout color ranges that produce consistently across Western fisheries throughout the season.

Overview

If you're chasing big, aggressive fish—Pro Snells were built for the job. Designed for trophy trout, but deadly on salmon, bass, and walleye too, these rigs offer a natural presentation that gets bit.

The secret is in the rigging. A precision bobber stop keeps the spinner blade and beads positioned away from the hook, allowing your threaded nightcrawler to ride straight and true without bunching up or sliding. That clean profile is exactly what picky, hard-fighting fish want.

Each Pro Snell features up to 12 coats of color-layered paint on the blade for deep, lifelike flash and contrast—dialed in by serious anglers who know what gets results.

Whether you’re trolling Eagle Lake or running your home waters, this snell is your go-to for putting big fish in the net.

How to Use

Tie On: Connect the rig to your mainline or leader using your favorite knot.
Thread the Worm: Use a full nightcrawler, threading it straight onto the hook so it sits flush and natural.
Keep It Clean: Thanks to the bobber stop, the blade and beads won’t interfere with the worm—giving you a clean, natural look.
Troll or Drift: Run it behind a dodger or troll it solo with a sliding weight. Best speeds are 1.1–1.8 MPH for trout and salmon; slower for bass and walleye.
Maximize Glow: For early morning, overcast days, or stained water, the UV glow and bright orange flash are fish magnets.
