Well Folks,
I'm no longer the Rooster Tail man..I have found a new love with many more benefits..I love the Booyah 1/4 ounce Tanden Spinnerbaits..
7 good reasons I switched.
1.Line twist..
Rooster will kink up line within 3 hours ..I saw a video ..The Rooster slowly spins in a circle during the retrieve...need to use a snap swivel..and I don't like extra hardware on my line.
Booyah..stays up right ..does not twist..


2.Hook Sets..Rooster ..even in the 3 inch model has a small trebel hook..The odds of a fish shaking off is great..I lost a 12 pounder once in 1981.[&o][:@]The next week a shiner fisherman caught it.12 1/2 pounds[&o]

The 1/4 ounce Booyah Spinner bait has one 3/0 worm sized hook..Great hook sets.Straight through the upper mouth.This is a big plus.

3.Rooster is tough for the beginner to use..getting the willow blade to turn takes skill..
Booyah..anyone can use it on any speed reel right out of the package.


4.I can only find big Roosters through Cabelas...1/4 ounce Tanden SPinnerbaits can be found in any Walmart..Save on shipping and quicker to get as well.

5.Rooster Tails can not be fished in the weeds..Tanden Spinnerbaits can be and I catch much more fish than even my ole trusty Rooster..In FLorida..the bass are in the weeds./

..6.They both can catch BIG bass but the average bass on a Rooster.. 1/2 pound to 1 1/2 pounds.
The average Booyah ..1 pound to 3 pounds..

7.The hackle on the Rooster Tail begins to fall apart and discolor as soon as it's fished.
Booyjah..is still snow white BUT I have had to replace 2 willow blades..the bass knocked them off during fights..


The biggest blessing and reason for the switch..no more line twist.. bigger hook and can fish in the vegetation.

Here it is except I only use white ..to match the hatch
