Storm Jerk Minnow

I used these saturday and these things can dance...I was shocked I did not catchanything on them. Has anyone used them and if so what is your experience.

Do they come in bigger sizes??

I've used one of the holographic blue minnow type lures that storm makes in freshwater going after pickeral and bass. It looks great in the water, nice and flashy like a dying minnow, but I must say that it does not catch as many fish as I would think it would. I use the banjo minnow at 1 particular lake alot and it actually outfishes the storm stuff by far. I haven't used soft plastics much in saltwater, but I am going to bring my soft plastics out this year and see how they do.

banjo minnow

i was fishing the whitehall reservoir (hopkinton) just down the hill from where they start the boston marathon)....one day armed with tons of plastics and lots of hard body lures probably 40 different types of both...ok and as i was putting around i saw a single banjo minnow up in a tree....so i went and retrieved it just for fun...

well i'll tell ya..that friggan lure alone caught 45 fish in the next 40 minutes... i had a blast with that thing...it was INSANE.!
absolutely no bull....they kick a$$ so you salt water plastic guys take note: and get that particular wiggle they have in your creations.
