Super Spook Jr.
Being a fan of the original spook, I saw where the super spook jr. comes with tail feathers and is shorter, easier to "walk the dog", anyone have a fav color or have had good luck with them this year?

Owner
Owner used to produce a Zipping Ziggy that was and still is the sweetist dog around. The mold was sold to lucky craft but they changed the eye and it is just not the same. Dog walker X is my next favorite dog. Then the Zara Spook named after ladies of the evening in Zaragrosso Florida and there style of using little dogs to walk the corners. Thank you Mr. Heddon....

JB, I am hurt. I am the #1 fan of the spook jr's.I do not like a feather tail on them, maybe the only topwater bait I use without a feather tail.In my opinion, all you need for colors are 2 basic colors, unless you fish at night then you need three.The 2 daytime colors are one with a chrome belly and one with a white belly.Bright sunny mornings, use a chrome color and when its cloudy and overcast use a white belly and of course black for night fishing. I will post my three picks. P N J

pnj,
i figured some out there in kevins bassforums land , it had already been mentioned who likes this bait, I was kinda foggy, didn't mean to step on your toes, I knew ya like the tube/jig, but had no idea ya did it on top too anyways, I had wondered about preferences about the tail feathers. I always have believed on the belly, that the white is close enough to a bass's belly or other injured fish |

JB, I have been reserving information for future testing & inspection of a original zara spook bait that is being made again. I will let you figure it out quite simply by telling you, I seen it from a picture you posted here at the site. P N J

I usually throw the zara spook almost everytime I fish in the summer, I am eager to get a super spook jr and see if its easier to walk the dog as advertised, and most importantly, catchs fish...anit that right pnj

JB, Do you want to borrow a spook jr ? I have got spook jr's & beyond the first echelon of them changed and ready to fish, there is the reserve cache of original spook jr's just in case they are discontinued. I would require you to send it back to me when you were done testing it.I really recommend someone to buy the super spook jr over the spook jr, even though I refer to them both as spook jr's. P N J

That second box of chocolate milk wasn't used as bait at the factory ? I know that factory girls and chocolate flavored anything goes together like peas & carrots ? Pork chops & applesauce ? Hot deep dish apple pie & vanilla ice cream ? I was going to say, you could have one, but I found it funny to demand getting it back, like that would happen once you caught fish on it ? P N J

Agreed

OH yes more weight and bulk. But I do not use a bait caster to throw them. Ah ha I learned a trick many years ago to use a five foot med light spinning rod with a good back bone and some braided 20lb test power pro. It can cast real far and I can walk the dog and handle big fish too. The secret is the rod being so short it can be pointed straight down at the water and walk the dog with no slack. Second it is very accurate with cupping the reel for distance. Third it does not fatigue you. But I do have the big baitcaster and the big JR for when I go south to NC GA or FL. I think it is a tidal Potomac thing to use smaller baits. Capt Mike

The black shore minnow and the chrome/black back are killer colors and have worked everywhere for me. When conditions are right they will outfish just about anything out there.

80% of the lures on the market are designed to catch fishermen. 20 % actually do catch big fish.This lure is for real. I like the clear prism colors in clear water and red and white in stained. The tail feather adds a little bit. I have been addung them for several years when the fish seemed to not take the bait as deep as normal, Fish2win
