Different days call for different situations, however, I tend to stick to the usual suspects.Koho in silver with blue or green, Croc in silver with blue or green and Blue Fox Vibrax, silver blade with green or blue bell, green blade works well too.  I did some mining around the 'net' and looks like these happen to be pretty popular choices, get them all and you're in good company.

  Rod is also a great guy and nothing beats supporting someone local.

The 4 pack of 1/4oz crocs sold everywhere are always a good bet.

blue fox spinners are deadly
number 2 through 4 for me usualy in orange
I always carry Gibbs Coho Spoons a few crocks Gibbs Ultra Lures Little Cleo Spoons, I like to have a good size variety for what conditions i hit.
another fave spinner if you can find it is a Les Davis Bolo...
saying that nothing I had worked today on the fish I found, saw some pinks a chum and some chrome..... damm

I also use blue fox in orange. Works great to bring a coho in. It really depends on what the coho will bite on that day.

Pixee spoons are deadly when fished correctly many Alaskans use nothing else but spoons and spinners should be fished very differently and in different water most people have no clue how to properly fish a spoon.

It's not how I think - it's about how it's done effectively.

Buy this book and read it cover to cover several times-everything that he says about Steelhead applies to other Salmonids.

Also, Jed Davis' book on spinner fishing is a classic on that subject.
I think I have learned more about spinner fishing for salmon/steelhead from reading that book than any other source.
