Banjo Minnow?

Howzit okes

My cousin from the US brought me some Banjo Minnows a few years ago when I first started out with the fun tackle spinning rod
I caught many bass with those lures and some of them quite big.
I lost my tackle box shortly after and never found it.

I was wondering what your thoughts are about this lure?
Here are two vids:

This lure has great action as well.
I know one wouldn't use these in tournaments but rather for the not-so-serious fishing times.
Please post your thoughts
Thanks

Looks awesome! Those strikes they show under the water gets me frothing at the mouth!!! I just wish the fish in these dams were so agressive!

Looks really good , are they available in S.A?

[jmgravenor]

No. My cuz is bringing some to sell here though.

When is your cousin bringing down some more of these banjo minnows? I'll take one

[jmgravenor]

eeeey chap.
I'm sorry but he has already come and gone and he brought a few packs but they were all sold. Sorry man

[ThinkBass]

Thanks JMG, no problem at all. Thought it may be a nice (fun) little addition for my wife to tryout. Next time

Why, how many light years is Cape Town removed from the rest of the world?? :-)

:blue-smile: lol
The Banjo Minnow packs can be ordered from the States but it comes at an immense cost.
The reason for only getting some in a few years is that my cousin is coming back in a few years and he will then be able to bring it.

Otherwise...order from the US and be prepared for the price of shipping

[LuanK]

Don't think its worth that much, but I sent a mail to the manufactures in the usa let hope we can order in bulk. I reckon I would pay about R450 . Let hope for good news
