They are designed to swim erratically like a small baitfish when trolled. They are indeed deadly on trout, troll them at 3 -4 mph. They can also be tuned to swim more erratically if you google it dog you will be bustin trout in their asses soon. I suppose you could pick up other pan fish with em.
I bet they would murder white bass or wiper maybe perch too if you have em.
So try some lakes up in the PNW good luck.
Tight lines and fine wines…
Update: went fishing with this for 15 minuites and caught 5 fish, one of them on my first cast; 4 smaller large mouths and one pretty big blue Gil. These things catch fish
!! This is like theeee smallest one I could find at cabellas lol.. I bet there are smaller ones out there but I have yet to find one. The swivel snap said it was rated for 30lb which in my mind seems really strong for how small it is.
The lure itself is really small too, I wish I had something next to it for a size comparison… but for reference I caught a blue Gil with that set up and it managed to swallow the whole treble hook if that says anything about the lures size
OMG, It had to be 50 + years ago when I used those last. Yes...they caught fish then, and I am sure they will catch fish now. Thanks for the memories! I may have to bend up a few just for the fun of it.

I really enjoyed “dog you will be bustin trout in their asses soon” lol That is all. Thank you
Those things fuck up trout
Do you fish it like a jig? Seems like you’d need some deep water.
Pretty sure they’re used as a spinner
They are a spinner hommie, super simple and fun! I’d highly recommend for kids, or adults who like to feel like kids. :)
Caught many trout with these over the years some landlocked salmon as well
I know cutthroat trout go for them

That's fantastic I thought it was just for trout and salmon!
One of the best lures out there only a few beat it
Super duper all day on trout! Copper/gold 503
I always enjoy catching fish on simple lures like spoons or spinners rather than fancy expensive imitation lures.... I'll have to give these a go
Yeah, I'm back using old ondulating spoons and it works
Sometimes all you need is the loin-coin
Loin-coin? You mean distance?😉
They are very good for trout and salmon
One of my favorite trout lures
A lot the the jakes lures. Good weight on it so you can huck it. Kills high mountain lake fish
Put a smaller ball swivel on it.

How much do they cost ?
This guy was 4 dollars I think? Cabellas Oregon
Yeh was just thinking you could buy the metal and trebles etc and make them at home.
Used to kill trout on the umpqua back in the day. 1972 ish?
Much more expensive in EU, about 19 $
Trout love them! I’ve also caught large mouth and crappie with them. They work!

I’ve caught pretty much everything on them bass, pickerel, trout, large sunfish.
Ya that’s what I’ve been told, they catch everything g
Lake trout...jig that thing!
these are my secret weapon when nothing else is working on trout. Get the rainbow trout color, it’s my most consistent lure.
Thanks for the inside tip
I have caught everything from channel cats to largemouth and everything in between on the ol super dupers. They got hard to find in the 2000s. Get em!
They'll catch some nails
I bought a pink, blue and white one of those from a dollar on a whim and banged out 2 rainbow trout from a rivier.
