Funny---I think they suck big time.
The Bass Bomb sinks like a rock and is useless at slack tide. You have to retrieve at bluefish speed to keep it on top And their pencil poppers cast like an old shoe. Plus, every one I ever used had "breakaway" barrel swivels--even worse than Gibbs.
First cast ever with a green/silver Yankee Needlefish, at Pochet. Two cranks of the handle, monster hit. Dropped the fish seconds later. Pitch dark, cast again, WHAM and no hook-up. Next cast, same thing. Finally, the light goes on in the back of my head, check the plug, no hooks. Belly swivel came apart, and the back hook broke at the eye.
The only time I ever caught a fish on their Montauk Minnow was when the belly hook fouled on my leader and the thing was skating across the surface
