central.PA.bass Posted March 15, 2011 Posted March 15, 2011 Anybody use these? I really love my Matzuo popper.. it is my number one river bait. smallies love it.. the new style poppers arent as good.. never tried their crankbaits or jerkbaits but today at Dicks they were on sale for 2 for 4$... so i bought a couple to try.. the jerkbaits dont look too shabby and they are suspending.. anyone use these?

Vinny Chase Posted March 15, 2011 Posted March 15, 2011 :-X They are my secret bait! First off, you can't beat the price. The quality of the baits obviously isnt as good as the higher end brands, but the action of the baits is very comparable. Another aspect I love about these baits is the color selection, they have some very unique colors that bass cant resist! Here are a few of my favorites: Quote
big t 4488 Posted March 15, 2011 Posted March 15, 2011 what size hooks did you put on those baits. Quote
Primus Posted March 15, 2011 Posted March 15, 2011 I bought a couple of their crankbaits a few years back and you could not tune them and they looked terrible in the water, I've never bought anything from them since then. Quote
Uncle Leo Posted March 15, 2011 Posted March 15, 2011 I bought a couple of their crankbaits a few years back and you could not tune them and they looked terrible in the water, I've never bought anything from them since then. Same here I could never get a crank to run true. Quote

central.PA.bass Posted March 15, 2011 Author Posted March 15, 2011 Vinny.. i can't wait to try my crankbait out. it is a chartruese perch pattern... I have lots of luck in late march on the same color crankbaits.. hopefully the jerkbait works too! Quote
CSimon2 Posted March 15, 2011 Posted March 15, 2011 I bought some micro crankbaits. They were 3 for $10. I used one the other day and noticed it did not run true each time. One cast they would come in straight, the next cast they would come back swirling. I checked and the line was not caught in the hooks or anything. I thought it was weird, but it happened a few more times. Quote

Like others have said, their crank baits are garbage, so don't get your hopes up with those...their jerbaits and hunting dogs are primarily all I use from them...you will like the jerkbaits Quote
Super User deaknh03 Posted March 15, 2011 Super User Posted March 15, 2011 i got 3 of the jerkbaits on ebay for like $4, haven't tried them yet, but after what I'm hearing, my hopes are up a bit. Quote
Avalonjohn44 Posted March 15, 2011 Posted March 15, 2011 They used to make some really excellent spinnerbaits, but don't anymore. I have had bad experiences with every crankbait I've ever bought from them, from peeling paint to cracking bodies to bad hooks to untunable. I sold them off on ebay years ago. Never tried the jerkbaits though. Quote
