fishincop640 Posted May 26, 2009 Posted May 26, 2009 Hello all, Just wondering if anyone has tried the newer model of the banjo minnow....guess it's the 006 model. I was having trouble sleeping the other night and turned on Versus and saw an infomercial for the banjo minnow. Im not usually one that believes everything I see on TV but those minnows had really good action and looked great in the water. I had the older version of the Banjo minnow and caught a lot of fish. Was wondering if anyone had success stories with the bait or if people just wasted the money getting them. Thanks in advance for your opinions.

Super User iceintheveins Posted May 27, 2009 Super User Posted May 27, 2009 Banjo minnows catch fish, but flukes, sluggos, and bass assassins are better. They cast further, have better action, sink better, and hook fish much better.
bigfish88 Posted May 27, 2009 Posted May 27, 2009 I won't go near any model of the Banjo Minnows. i must say the same..
CRFisher Posted May 27, 2009 Posted May 27, 2009 If you want something with a segmented body I've heard many good things about Lake Forks Magic Shad. A lot cheaper to give them a shot too.

It caught fish, but when I found a pack of Power Slugs, I never dropped it since. There are way better options out there.
