Subject: Banjo Minnow!

Wayne,
Just wanted to say thanks for creating such a great lure! I just received my 006 Banjo MInnow set last wednesday in the mail. I'm from Long Beach, CA so there isn't a lake nearby and I'm not a fan of Ocean fishing. All my friends made fun of me and constantly joke about my banjo minnows about how its not going to catch anything other than my money. So we went to Lake Skinner in Temecula and to tell the truth, I was a bit embarassed to try it out because they made fun of it so much (haha) So for the first half of the day, we just used the regular anchovies and swimbaits (won't name the brand) I can't tell you how many bass will follow it and turn away as soon as it came close the the shore. Then I joked and said I was going to bring out the "bass killer"
I brought out my banjos, and on my first cast, a bass hit the lure soooo hard, it flew out of the water and I missed the strike obviously. I was so excited! It was the first time we saw action that day. WIth my heart racing, I cast it right back and hooked up with a nice size bass. I then caught 5 more bass on consecutive casts. They no longer make fun of the banjo minnows and are planning to buy their own since I won't share mines. Thanks and good fishing!!!

Hey Wayne,
Here is what I did yesterday afternoon. He was not a monster, but he was a straight up slot fish, and was good for dinner. Straight up 28 inches. My friends do not make fun of my banjos anymore! Hope you have a great day.

My wife bought me a set of your Bango minnows and eyes and hooks for my birthday and it was the best birthday present that I could ask for. I am a pond hopper. I like to fish ponds and pools, thats where the big bass are just waiting under the lillie pads.The first day that I took them fishing I caught a 8.5 pounder,and a 6 pounder. The second day I caught another 8 and a halfer. So in my eyes the banjo minnow is the best fishing lure that has been put out on the market EVER, no buts, ifs or ands, its just the best their is!!! Thanks for the fun, I will be a Bango minnow spokes person for life. Now I need to go and order some eyes and hooks. Thanks again Your Pond Pal Beudreau. P.S. I work nights so I dont have a day phone on until after 12:00 noon Monday-Thursday.

HELLO WAYNE MY FRIEND ASK ME TO GO FISHING WITH HIM, AS WE BOTH ARE PAST OUR PRIME AND NEED A BUDDY JUST IN CASE SOMETHING SHOULD HAPPEN TO ONE OF US .HE IS 84 AND I AM 66 WE WENT TO HIS POND YOU COULD SEE THE BASS AND CATFISH SWIMMING AROUND. HE HAD TRYED ALL KINDS OF BAIT WITH NO LUCK I TOLD HIM ABOUT THE BANJO MINNOW I HAD ORDER AND WANTED TO TRY THEM OUT . I USED THE 3 IN. MINNOW WITH BLACK BACK AND BLACK DOTS ON THE SIDE. ON THE SECOND CAST I HAD MADE TWO JERK AND AS I STARTED TO TAKE UP THE SLACK I NOTICE THE LINE STARTING TO MOVE AWAY FROM ME. I DID LIKE THE VIDEO SAID LET HIM TIGHTEN THE LINE THEN I PUT THE HOOK ON HIM . I THEN CAUGHT TWO MORE FIVE POUNDERS. TOTAL OF THREE I CALLED HIM AND HE WALKED OVER AND SAW THE FISH AND TOLD ME TO PUT MY RODS UP . WE WENT HOME. I GAVE HIM THE PICK OF THE FISH. A GREAT DAY I GOING TO TRY THEM IN THE BIG LAKE SOON.

my name is nate and i wanted to say that your bait is the best lure i have ever used. this summer i was at my grandma's house and saw the add on tv. my grandpa told me not to get it because it was a gimmic and wont work. the next day we went to bass pro shop in independence mo and saw the kit. i had to have it.thet day i went fishing and caught 3 largemouth bass two 13 in and one 14 in. my grandpa was still sceptical so i went back out the next day and caught 5 more bass the biggest was a nice 16 1/2 in largemouth(the biggest ive ever caught) he still thinks it is luck, but im going to prove him wrong!!! thanks for making my time fishin better and my fish fries bigger.
