    It's basically a flutter spoon with a thicker piece of metal used for the spoon. I use flutter spoons for american shad fishing. Like a flutter spoon, because of the upward swoop on the spoon, it rises to the surface as you real it in. When fishing with flutter spoons, since they weigh almost nothing, you either add some split shot about 15 inches up the line or tie it to the end of a carolina rig when fishing deep or fast moving water. This lure had potential and I still have a few that I catch fish on. How can we base how good a lure is off of a few fishing trips? How many times have you gone out fishing and gotten skunked while using lures/baits that absolutely worked for you in the past. If the fish aren't there, they aren't hungry, or they are stressed out , they just won't bite. Have you ever sight casted to a fish and watch them swim off as you get your lure closer to them? There are way too many variables to think about. Honestly, some decent lures were killed because of the cheesy gimmicky marketing they used. If companies let independent field testing do the talking instead of throwing a product out on the market that insists upon itself, the market life of that product wouldn't be so short lived.

    When I was a young teenager, an older friend showed me what he called a "Mepps Minnow" Just about the only lures he owned and used. I watched him catch a lot of fish with it, I think it was a silver #2 blade. Now, several decades later, The Mepps Comet Minnow is one of my most favorite lures and I have several in each size and color. It's my "universal bait". I will say though that many lures are made to catch fishermen, not fish. I mean, how many colors does one really need. I just try to think about the natural forage and what colors they are and I just try to "match the hatch" so to speak. Thanks a bunch Brendan!

    I've actually caught loads of fish on this. I laughed at my brother in law when he bought one based on the infomercial. He proceeded to catch nothing with it...then get frustrated and threw it into the heaviest slop he could find and reel it in quick. Caught a fish. And again.
    Fish it topwater, fish it fast...like you almost have to start reeling before it hits the water. You'll miss often, but get huge reaction strikes

    I had the same exact experience with that lure. It looks so good. It's like a pre-chatter-bait design. I can catch fish with just the plastic fish part but not with the blade and plastic. I don't have patience trying to reel it in so slow. I ld rather throw a spinner bait.

    Actually, I've found the Berkley Blade Dancer to be an excellent lure, and I was sad to see it go. Needless to say, I still have several. Part of your problem may be that "after factory" clip you have on the front of the bait. The original came with an O split ring. Now, I did have a problem with the "weedless" version in that the weed guard would break off after you caught two fish with it. My biggest fish with this lure was a 5 lb. largie. I did lose one Blade Dancer when a sow of a bass broke me off, and I was using 20 lb. copolymer. Phenomenal!

    yea sum lures r really meant to catch the fishermen more than the fish. But anothr thing ppl dont know is most lures have a time & a place when they work best. Sum even have have specific species.. Ive seen ppl throwing topwater lures in november, January, February & then say the lures all hype bcuz they didnt catch anything on it..

    Having fished multiple s in different sizes and colors, ruclips.net/user/postUgkxCbNOWAGmn6nfbCbJDmasvBq7J38KZNw2 this is by far my favorite. One thing to be aware of is the sided willow blade. One side is silver and the other is the green/orange shown. This is not bad, just unconventional. In terms of fishing, I have found the lure works just fine without a tail like a craw or shad. That addition is up to you. Also, the hook part where you attach the swivel snap or tie the line is a problem on baits these days, since it's able to slide up and down. However this lure seems to be tight enough that that doesn't happen often, and you can solve it by putting a thin slice of medical tube over the hook before attaching the line. Like others have said, it's really magic on a good windy day.
