Technically the term ‘spinner’ refers to that stage in a Dun’s life cycle when it has moved off the water or, vegetation etc. after drying its wings. The adult or imago of all Mayflies, Caddis flies and Midges can technically be regarded as spinners.
Mayfly spinners must be like candy to trout because when they are around trout definitely become fixated on them to the exclusion of all other offerings.
