Bamaboy43 Posted March 19, 2010 Posted March 19, 2010 I just bought a pack and I've never been fond of top water lures except the spro frog and I was wondering if anyone else has had any success on these. They seem like soft zara spooks which is an amazing lure. Any tips or opinions on these would be cool. Quote
soccplayer07 Posted March 19, 2010 Posted March 19, 2010 I picked up a pack a few weeks back but have not had a chance to throw them . The reviews I have read are mixed at best. Most prefer the smaller size (3.5 "). I watched a BPS show where Horton was fishing them over grass. It looked great. Quote
Bamaboy43 Posted March 20, 2010 Author Posted March 20, 2010 No, I'm pretty sure their not. Just your average soft bait. The hook it recommends on the pack is a monster as well. Quote
Rich Tehan Posted March 20, 2010 Posted March 20, 2010 It doesn't seem to me like it would have a good hookup ratio. A spro bronzeye seems to catch fish as good as any rat, although fish probly see a ton of bronzeyes now. Quote
Luke at Gouldsboro Posted March 20, 2010 Posted March 20, 2010 I was looking at buying these, but didn't yet. There are so many topwater lure choices, if you bought half of them, you'd be broke. I usually use poppers or frogs, but I saw these and definitely will try them soon, and as posted earlier, they do recommend big hooks Quote
ichigo Posted March 20, 2010 Posted March 20, 2010 3 1/2 recemond 5/0 hooks while 4 1/2 do requires 7/0 but i prefer 3 1/2 because its lighter and better action i did test it in my pool 4 1/2 is around 3/4 while 3 1/2 is 1/2 oz Quote
bass or bass ? Posted March 21, 2010 Posted March 21, 2010 I've been considering these baits also but haven't seen any favorable (or unfavorable for that mater) reviews yet, so at least for now I'm sticking with Zera Spooks. Quote

This is a thread from several pages back..... http://www.bassresource.com/bass_fishing_forums/YaBB.pl?num=1265984821 I've picked up a few packs but its a little early for me to start using them yet.

Perhaps spooks are better for open water, but the money hound is weedless, the alternative is topwater frog, toad, or rat. Quote
shootermcbob Posted March 22, 2010 Posted March 22, 2010 One of my friends who works at cabelas suggested these to me as an alternative to a spook or such. They are weedless, float, and can be thrown nearly anywhere. Quote
