Since you didnt say where we had to use these lures i figuered the delta and of the cheezy lures you put up that was the only one that has any potential to hook up. The wood would work if I could have some paint. This is a lame poll but you asked so we answered. What are you tring to do decide what infomercial product to buy

IFISH say's,

actually JOHN, i was gonna buy you a set of whatever you said you'd think would work. The Helicopter Lure it is. would you like me to make sure it's here by our next tournement ?? I found a great deal on them, someone offered to give me $10 bucks just to get um' outta their face. :P

Lets do it...get it and I "WILL" catch a fish on it just for you.

Do I hear a helicopture lure only tournament in the making. That would be hilarious. We could have a write up in the barni zone and everything ...

If you guys go with the helicopter lure, can I use dynamite? I'd limit myself to one, well placed stick...there are some bass out there who have got it coming!

Ok..OK I confess.. I have a set of the
Banjo lures. I got it as a gift but have never
used it. I think I also gave my bro a set of
Helicopter lures years ago. MY BAD.. but if you
have a tourney, count me in.

Yeah I fell for this one a couple of years ago because they were on a closeout bin at Big 5. The funny this is that I've actually caught 5 fish on them, (all but 1 were dinks) but I don't think I was fishing them the right way.

As for a Barni tournament, I'd be in for a Barni tournament on Anderson or some other bay area lake. :D

...can be the baine of our existence or something to be disected for the good parts. I have recieved a few of these chincy gifts myself. The Helicopter lure kit actually has a good box, good hooks, and good swivels (once you seperate them). The lures are best donated to that annoying little brat down the street especially when I can get a lawn mowing out of them.
The Flying Lure kit also had an OK box, and the lures actually will work in the right situation. Properly hidden in the right place you can have them without enduring the jeers of other fishermen.
The Banjo minnows I got came in a pathetic box that died quickly, as for the rest, the hooks were given to a nice respectful kid at the lake (don't meet to many of them), the rubber bands have no earthly use other than orthodonthia, the lures I haven't decided what to do with, the spring things went into my jig box for trailers.
A final thought, to quote Patrick F. McMannus "Don't Sniff a gift fish", just cut it up for catfish bait.

P.S. I'd be up for "The Ultimate Barney Tourney" if it was held at a South bay lake. How about the most pathetic fish wins? Extra points for Carp, Goldfish, or other pestulence.

I think Calero would be a nice spot for the Barney tournament. Plenty of shoreline for tubers, boats and shore fishing. Heck, we could even accept walk up entries (seeing as they're easy to spot at this lake). :D

Of course Chabot takes the cake on avg barney's/per day.
