Super User CWB Posted September 4, 2008 Super User Posted September 4, 2008 Strike King. T-1 good but when is the last time an Elite event or Classic even listed it as one of the baits the top 5 finishers used? Not biased but with $25,000 on the line that tells me something. Don't put so much faith into what they "say" is winning tournaments. Pros can win with any bait, but they "choose" to "say" they won with the baits that pay the $. Besides, the tournament $$ is small change compared to what the elite pros get in contract $$ from sponsors. i like terminator t1's and strike king. pros are getting paid to say things most of the time imo. I'm sure they say what they a told to say but when you see them landing a fish and unhooking it it becomes clear what they are using and when I get my Bassmaster it usually bears out. Also if you notice, there is a photograher in each pro's boat and a floatilla of boats watching their every move. Wish I got their $$ for endorsements!!! Quote
quant PT Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 Terminator T-1 is the best hands down. Quote
Handy Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 Terminator T-1 gets my vote. But I too do not catch allot of fish on them. I have been throwing them for 5 years(?) and only 4-5 fish caught on them, total. They look like awesome fish catchers to me but in my neck of the woods not so. I catch many more on mepps inline spinners, so I guess that would be my second fav. Paul Quote
Jeff C. Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 I will be getting some "Rattle Head" spinner baits next week and will let you all know how they work. Jeff Quote
snapper G Posted September 5, 2008 Author Posted September 5, 2008 I think I need remedial training or somethingI have Strike King and Booyahs and some generic this and that..... I have in my time caught some great fish on jigs, crank baits, jerk baits, and the multitude of soft plastics.... I have to confess... I have NEVER caught a fish of any kind on spinner bait :-? You sure don't fish them much , do you ? x2!! Quote
Rich K Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 Strike King, but I modify 'em and even make some of my own using Stamina Lure products. The fish in my avatar was caught using a modified Strike King we like to call a "thumper". Quote
T-Bone Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 I can't say that I like one over another, I've caught many fish on many different brands of spinnerbaits. When I go buy a spinnerbait, I don't really look at the brand, I look for the skirt color, size, and blade combination that I need. T-Bone Quote

twors Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 I like War Eagle and Terminator's but wanting to try some Longshanks in the future. Quote

loomis spookwalker Posted September 6, 2008 Posted September 6, 2008 By far Terminator T-1 spinnerbaits are superior to most if not all of the on the rack spinnerbaits out there. From their top quality ball-bearing swivels to the titanium wire they simply catch more fish for me. If Treminator didn't exist I would use Stanley or Boo-Yah. And for the skeptics, I've caught hundreds of fish on Terminator... someone must not know how to fish ? Quote
Super User Jimzee Posted September 6, 2008 Super User Posted September 6, 2008 Terminator T-1 the only one I can't tear up in a matter of a couple hours. I go through other spinnerbaits like crazy, sometimes 6-7 a day. Quote
plastic ninja Posted September 6, 2008 Posted September 6, 2008 I catch more fish with the 99 cent spinnerbaits from walmart. In the event one snags up, I'm only out a dollar bill. The blue/white tandem,chartruse tandem, and black/red single colorado work very well. I bought three or four of those five dollar/war eagle baits and have never got a bite. Quote
bassmaster3000 Posted September 6, 2008 Posted September 6, 2008 i say that the strike king mini king spinnerbait is my favorite. i've caught a lot of fish on it, all 2lbs+, and i also caught my first bass on a spinnerbait on one. I say for best results, get a white one and put a chartruese curly tail on the hook to use with it. thats what i've had my best luck on. I also say that booyah is another good company. those are also made of really strong material so they done break bery easy. for color i say a plain yellow with a red eye and yellow colorado and willow blades. spinnerbaits are one of my favorite baits to use and i find them really nice to have in the tackle box. Tight lines!!! ;D _____________________________________________ remember to catch, photo, and release!!! Quote
Super User Wayne P. Posted September 6, 2008 Super User Posted September 6, 2008 My favorite is the Bass Buster Scorpion in 1/4 oz. They were discontinued many years ago but I still have several dozen. Quote
jax Posted September 6, 2008 Posted September 6, 2008 I have been more than happy with my Terminator. $4 from Dicks and I don't have to worry about getting bent out of shape. I was pond fishing last night on a clear lake. It was misting outside. I was using the white with black highlights skirt. I was catching little 9" bass with every cast. I couldn't find any big bass due to the little bass hitting it so fast. Quote
Super User Micro Posted September 6, 2008 Super User Posted September 6, 2008 Another vote for Terminator and Dave's Tournament Tackle. Quote
