One of my favorite baits to throw is a Strike King spinnerbait, at last day of the Classic at the expo in the Booyah booth they throwing out baits. I snagged a spinnerbait, when I got home I opened it the first thing I noticed was the small, thin wire. Has any body had any problems with them breaking?

They bend easily, but they catch fish. I use the one with four blades. Usually I can bend it back, but sometimes they go in the trash after a couple of fish.

I think it's arguable that all spinnerbaits are "disposable" by their very nature but I haven't had any problems with Booyah spinnerbaits. At the very least I don't find them any better or worse than most of the brands I use.

Thnx. Like I said I perfer Strike King baits the most out of any other brand. I haven't tried Booyah yet and I was just wonderin'

They are fine. Over the last 10 year the two brands I have probably used the most are Booyah and Strike King, never had a problem with either.

I fish Booyah Hotwires and Pond Magics, never had a problem with wires snapping, Booyah is a fantastic company!

I like the Booyah pond magics.  They are great for stream fish and catch just about anything.  One of my favorite Booyahs to throw is the all black with the big colorado blade on it.  I do however like Strike King better.  I am partial to their bait because I caught my first bass on a 38 special.   About the only other spinnerbait I throw is War Eagle.

No wire problems, but each of the half-dozen Booyah spinnerbaits I own required tweaking right off the rack to get them to run true. Two of them had to go down in blade size to prevent them from rolling.  Nice baits now that they're dialed in; I have yet to have any fish completely trash one.

Caught a nice 4.5 pounder on a white chatreuse and yellow spinner last near no probs

Love the pond magic for some rivers and creeks i fish, for anything bigger i use war eagle.

I own a lot of Booyah spinnerbaits and a few buzzbaits. Never a problem with any of them. I've caught a decent number of fish on them also. The only thing I've ever had happen was the skirt collar rot off after a while but that's with any brand. I fix it by using zip ties. I like the skirts on a Booyah bait best of any I've ever had or used.

Ive never heard anyone else mention it, but they make some darn good jigs too. I like the vertical line ties and head shape on the "boo" and "A" jigs.

I have a few of the double colorado booyah spinners that see a lot of action in dark water situations with no issues(caught a 40"+ pike on one, all it did was bend the wire and scratch off some pain on the head, bent the wire back and it is good to go) , that being said i do prefer SK spinners for most applications.

I've had a couple blades fly off when a fish jumped, but I can't say for sure that I didn't tinker with them and maybe didn't get the wire shut back far enough. The Indiana/Colorado bladed chartreuse and white Booyah is one of my favorite spring time baits.

Lighter wire gives ya better vibration I believe. They make awesome baits.

They are nice spinnerbaits. I did have one snap last year after catching a few decent fish which made me a little leary but it has only happened once.

 

Really like their jigs.

Booyah are the only spinnerbaits I throw. I had one that I caught 10+ fish on, on all sorts of days. Finally snagged it and had to break off, but it has been replaced by a few others exactly like it.

I have one in just white but it seems they bend plentiful of times but I just bend it back. I just rather use Strike King.
