What the solver builds around it

The most common pick at each other stage, across the 71 builds around the Aglia Inline Spinner that clear without an error.

Every fish, every water

Each row is the best rig the solver can build for that fish in that water while being forced to use the Mepps Aglia Inline Spinner. "Adds" lists the engine problems it brings that the free solve for the same pair does not have, and the last price column is the cost against that free solve.

Fish-and-water pairs are the ones we publish solved rigs for: water type matches and the fish is actually targeted there. Build prices are street-price estimates from our catalog.

Where it falls short

The checks the Aglia Inline Spinner trips that the free solve for the same pair does not, by how many builds each one fires in. The quoted line is the engine's own message from the first build it fired in.

  • Bait runs above the fishwarn in 57 builds

    Largemouth Bass, Weedy Lake: Bait works 1–8 ft; fish are holding near 15 ft. Largemouth Bass feeds at a depth bias of 0.55 in 3–25 ft of water. A bait that never reaches them cannot catch them: add weight, change baits, or fish a shallower spot.

    With no sinker setting the depth, a bait whose deepest running depth sits more than 2 ft above where the fish holds gets a warning.

  • Cast weight vs rod minimumwarn in 3 builds

    Muskellunge, Weedy Lake: 0.14 oz is under the rod's 1 oz minimum. A rod casts by flexing under the weight it is throwing. Below 1 oz this blank never loads, so you get a short, weak, uncontrolled cast no matter how good your technique is.

    Weight, bait and float together have to reach the bottom of the rod’s casting rating, or the blank never loads. The engine warns.
