Ss Terminator Spinnerbaits

[Tiller]

Anyone use the stainless steel terminator spinnerbaits? How do they perform and hold up? My local cabelas has them 25% off and I might pick up a few.

Thanks,

I like them.  I especially prefer the Oklahoma style blade that is offered on that bait.

 

S/S or not, I do not feel that are super durable though they may hold up a bit better than the bargain brand baits.

 

Unfortunately the pike here usually manage to scramble just about any spinnerbait quite nicely.

The Oklahoma bladed ones are called the "Thumper"

I like them and they hold up better for me but I have no pike. Just grennel.

I'm not a big fan of them. They're very mediocre spinnerbaits, but if the price is right, then give it a shot. They're worth about $3, not a penny more. If you want to spend $5, then give these a shot. They're the real deal.

I like the fact that they use quality components and the beveled OK blade is unique to this brand. A-Jay, you should try and you probably have, the Terminator series when fishing where there's pike. I drop a split ring over the R-bend and attach a wire leader. That titanium shaft bounces back fish after fish.

The original Terminator Titanium spinnerbaits and the stainless steel terminators mentioned at the top of this post are two entirely different animals.  It is made out of stainless steel wire that doesn't  "bounce back" like the titanium wire does.  Overall, they just aren't as sturdy as the titanium ones are.
