Product reviews of Smithwick Lures Devil's Horse Propeller Topwater Fishing Lure - Mimics Fleeing Shad

Ken Tanguis : The old standby

The Horse has been one of my favorite standby top water baits for years. Unfortunately last summer, I lost one that had been part of my arsenal for many years. Scores of bass have fallen for "Old Reliable". This is a must have for any tackle box.

Earl Powell : Four Stars

all good

Seth : Color

Bass just can't leave this lure alone, color is perfect in nearly any color water.

Amazon Customer : Cath fish ... Where ever you fish !

Great product..good for both salt & fresh water !

pikey : Five Stars

super lure

Larry M. Burke : Great for Lunker Largemouth

Yesterday, thanks to advice from a fishing friend, I tied on this lure. In two hours, I had a largemouth going 9 lb 8 oz and a second going 6 lb 8 oz. Both were taken on the perch color and the lure had been in my tackle box for a number of years without being used. These were the two largest, but we also boated two three pounders before the wind got so back we had to get off the water.

Amazon Customer : The Devil's Horse is a oldie but goodie.

The Smithwick Devil's Horse is an old surface lure that still drives fish crazy unlike the newer ones on the market now days. It can be modified also by changing the rear hook for a larger heavier one that makes the lure sit different in the water with it'd nose sticking up. A tiny twitch makes it nod and dance on the surface for a nice strike. I found the Yellow with Black back good as well as the all black one which are hard to find now.

handfree : catch fish

i used it and cought 3 fish at one time wow this thing is amazing

Brian : Masterpiece

First prop bait from back in the forties been slaying bass ever since!

Doug, Indiana : Delivered when said.

Delivered on time,good product, good price.

Bookie_Monster : Its okey....

It is just ok.

Re Vue : I'm disappointed.

The front & rear propellers are soft, and easily jam and stop spinning. The trick appears to be to twist or untwist their eye-screws to get the right tension on them. I don't like that--they should be firm, and should work perfectly out of the box without issue, as long as they're not jammed with weeds. Haven't caught anything on this yet, perhaps because I use it less because of the propellers not both spinning properly all the time. I'm disappointed.

Dr. Wanda Goodreau : I would buy a heavier lure.

Really too light of a lure to fish where we fish.

c smith : A premier top water lure in all weather!!

If I was stranded on a deserted island with a fresh water lake, could have only one lure, this is it.
