Hello guys, just researching the craw fatty I bought, I came across the Devils Spear on the interwebs. I have been searching for this bait since I heard about it around a year ago. Did they stop producing these baits?

Edit: I found them of course on TW, but I've yet to see them in stores like bass pro. Has anyone used these baits?

I really don't care for them as a trailer. I would much rather use a boot-tailed swimbait.

I've thought about other ways to use them; you could fish them like a finesse fluke or a grub. But I don't think they'll come out of my tackle bag much.

I am not sure if they are still making the Devil Spear, I have not seen them on the shelves lately but I have a bunch as they are good for punching heavy mats since they are easy to keep on the hook without them slipping, are compact and easily slip through cover, and give off a nice thump with that tail.

 

I agree like said above, I kind of put them in the grub category and use them as trailers on chatterbaits etc... but they work good like the Rage menace if rigged sideways on a jighead or weighted hook. They cast a mile and are extremely versatile and they handle heavy guage hooks really well when fishing heavy braid and it is thick yet soft plastic tough to beat for the money as are all Havoc baits.

 

They push a big wake if fished flat under the surface and are good to throw weightless as they cast well on casting gear and waking them is a good way to fish them as well, fish tend to choke them when the strike as they are nice and short.

Have you tried them as chatterbait trailers?

That is the ONLY way I was able to catch fish with them. Even on my practice lakes where they eat everything, they wouldn't touch the Devil's Spear.

I took this down to the creek yesterday just as something to practice with, and I must say, I was very intrigued by the action. I will try to catch a fish on one and maybe post a review in the future.

The devil spear is my favorite wobble head bait FWIW.
