im sure every fisherman has seen the commercial for the banjo minnow on a late night infomercial. my question is, has anyone bought it and does it work as well as advertised?

Couldn't one fish the fluke the same way..?
I don't have a T.V. in my house..so I've never seen the advertizement.

They are almost as good as the flying lure.

there illegal here[&o]

J/K[8D], i'd say a slugo, bass assasin, fluke, chatterbox, or any of these type baits would work about the same.


but none will catch'em like the ole helicopter lure[:-][:@]BTW, J/K bout the helicopter lure...most of those deals are about "hooking fisherman" and their wives/girlfriendsand not somuch the fishif you get my drift[&o]

I say forget the infomercials, and go with what looks natural for whatever fish, you fish for would normally eat.

The stuff that is in their environment, like crawfish, grass hoppers, frogs, etc, etc, etc.
Stick to what nature uses.
The stuff that imitate the real stuff.
You will catch fish, and You, Annnnnnnnnd you pocket book will be a happy camper.

JMHO

AFter looking at them on the Banjo site...they have no much hardware on them for me..AND..the way they are rigged..would never work down here in Florida..those weed guards are about useless.

NOW has anyone ever heard of fishing with rubber wormsthose work pretty good.[8D]

They are one of the best baits ever made . I have caught A lot of bass on banjo minnows . But my favorite lure is the spinnerbait

Only lure I never caught a fish on.[:@][X(][]

[8D]save your money...buy some zoom flukes---been there---done that

you must be fishing it wrong, although the add says that is impossible, maybe you have discovered the oneweakness[:-]

BTW, try fishing it on a carolina rig
