Used once on big waves/lake Erie w/ Perch Captain recommending 2oz weight (depth: 20-30ft) - bite was slow, caught 10/30 Perch limit (used perch minnows hooked under/through nose)
Not sure why the snap (for the sinker) at the bottom must be so massive but otherwise a nice concept to easily change out the weight
The 2 horizontal hook lines still twisted around the line and caused the flouro carbon line to kink/bend despite the premium 3 way swivel system
Despite these issues the rig still caught fish and probably did help the horizontal lines w/ hooks (2) from getting twisted even more, I would recommend trying this rig if planning to using minnows for perch 15ft or more without too much taller weed growth
Also, used on Lake St. Clair (17ft) and caught a few nice perch using larger emerald shinners (unfortunately the smallmouth devoured them too, distracting from the perch, but who doesn't enjoy reeling in a 3lb smallie)

Thanks for submitting the photo David, looks like you had a great day on the water!
They work great. They never come off hook when casting and when leaving it out for longer periods of time I know my bait regardless of what I'm using is always on my hook.

Very nice channel catfish Jason!! Thanks for leaving a review - so glad you are enjoying the catch-a-cat bait pockets :)
Great drop shot additive on the St. Lawrence River for live bait and also drop shot baits.
It is also deadly on the Tennessee River for Bass. I’m a fan.

Nice pike Steve, and great pic! Thanks for submitting, and wishing you many more great days on the water!
Love this rig. Saves a lot of time & the hooks sit just right. I've caught so many bluegill and other pan fish with these. I definitely will be buying more from this company. Especially since their price is lower than Amazon.

Thanks for your review and photo HW, nice mess of panfish! Good fishing!
I live in Mo, so water is still a little cold. I was yo-yoing it off the bottom. I let it set a few seconds and he picked it up. I love the scuttle tails. I purchased the blue , the silver, and white.
I also purchased the critterpede . I use it as a Ned rig. I like the way it floats up off the bottom. Makes it very enticing for the fish.

Very nice lake trout Rafael - so happy to hear you are enjoying the Stingnose Peanut Bunker and thanks for sharing this great photo with us :)
Jigging for walleyes on Saginaw bay and they were being finicky so we went small presentation tipped with the eyes and the perch loved them a few walleyes did too. Definitely out performed a minnow head, my buddy fished 30 yards away and never touched a perch

Wow...that's some great fishing Ethan 👍 Thanks for writing in and letting us know ☺️ 🎣
The Peanut Bunker and Stingnose Minnow spoons are amazing for enticing Walleye, Bass, Sheephead and Northern Pike! I submitted a picture of the Peanut Bunker that I used way up in northern Ontario for jigging deep water, fall Northern Pike. It got smashed on pretty much every drop and got scratched up pretty good. Not nearly as much as my hands though, from unhooking all them toothy terrors. An excellent deep-water jigging spoon!

Thanks for taking the time to submit a photo and review Mark…so glad you’re liking the Stingnose, they really do work great! Fish-on!
Fishing Long Point, Lake Erie with the American Smelt.

Hi Daniel - that's a nice 7 lb walleye!! Congrats on that and thanks for sharing your photos with us :)
This gold color has helped me hook and land so many fish it's insane. Works amazing when it's just starting to get brighter. The action is really good and the fish can't seem to ignore it.
Store owner replied:
Thanks for your review on the Stingeye spinner Fahad, nice fish!
I have landed hundreds of pike on the the sting eye spinners I have multiple in each color. Would definitely recommend these. They cast really good and can definitely take a beating by those big pike thrashing around.
Store owner replied:
That's awesome, thanks David!
Fantastic rig, it essentially was a bolt rig, I believe the octopus hooks work a little better. Maybe try a little Larger size circle hook only because of the corn kernels not being enough. However both work amazing, you literally watch your rod or listen for the free running reel to go off.. they caught catfish also rest assured
Store owner replied:
Wow!! That is simply outstanding Barry, and thanks for sharing this great photo :)
Used the 1/2 and 3/4 ounce gold minnows. Catch fish every time we go out on lake Erie in the west basin. Highly recommend using a nightcrawler with it. Walleye love this. Unfortunately so do the sheephead. But fun regardless and are a worthy investment.

That's fantastic Ben - so happy to hear you are having some great days on the water 🎣🎣
The schoolie minnow is amazing! It has great action in the water. The fish seem to hold on to it longer than other soft baits. This is a must have for the tackle box! Thanks for an amazing product.
Store owner replied:
Thanks Tim and that's a nice smallmouth bass 👍👍 🎣🎣
The flexi-jig is an amazing lure! Great hook set location. The flexi-jig paired with the schoolie minnow is a perfect combo. Will be adding more of these to the tackle box. Thanks for the amazing products!

Wow, nice walleye, thanks for your Eye Drop review Dominique! Good fishing!
Caught some Pacific lingcod with your equipment... No tangles whatsoever. I surprised the captain on the boat, he was nervous with my t turn right, but no issues.
