Questions about Trout Magnet Trout Slayer Kit - 20 Crawdad Bodies and 8 Size 6 Long Shank Hooks

Picture's a bit unclear. Is this a pack of rubber worms (or other such creatures) or flies? If rubber, can it be fished under a bobber, jig, etc? TY

Answer: trout is a soft grub that looks like a crayfish can be used to fish bottom or top with a bobber (jig) to go for bass. Works well for any pan fish in lakes and ponds.

Answer: They are small crayfish, great for trout panfish and small mouth bass.. You can fish it under a bobber and they do come with light jigheads for casting

Answer: Hey I bought these last year, they are bugs, yes I fish them under a bobber. Great for crappie and yellow perch.

Answer: They are rubber grubs and crickets. Idk about a bobber, I would assume so, but these are ment for floating downstream, not so much bobbing

Answer: What length are these lures.

How many pieces of each color and how many jig heads are in the package?

Will bluegill eat these ?

Answer: Yes they seem to love them, haven't found any fish not to eat them. Very pleased with kit great fish catcher.

Answer: Yes...also crappies, bass, yellow perch

Answer: Yes, they do!!! Killer!!!

Answer: Yes

how many jig heads come with it?

Answer: the write up that I'm looking at says 8 hooks that are size 6. Even the picture shows 8 hooks.

Answer: 6

Why are these people charging over 14 dollars for an item I can get for 7 dollars?

What size is the hook

Answer: I believe it's a size 6, didn't really use it much. I stuck with the trout magnets and they worked really well in the ponds and streams

Answer: the write up that I'm looking at says 8 hooks that are size 6.

Answer: +/- size 8

Going to lee's ferry az for trout fishing. no scented artificial baits andonly barbless hooks. i can bend over the hook barb . are these baits scented

Answer: You can file off the barbs pretty easy. Not sure how a game warden would look at it if you just smashed the barb down. They are not scented.

Answer: No

precio de envio a mexico?

What does the “white” package mean? I assume that it’s just white softbait lure and nothing else. Thanks

Answer: I am not aware of a "white package" kit, but I have bought several trout magnet/slayer kits and they are all assorted colors. single colors come in individual packs.

Answer: just white plastic lures

What wiight are the jigs?

Answer: 1/64 oz

Are the baits pre-rigged?

Answer: No, they are not pre-rigged. There are some hooks provided that are easy to bait with the lures. Easy to play and catch fish with. I have caught trout and bass with these lures.

Answer: In contrast to the previous responses, a couple of the baits came pre-rigged in my kit. The assortment does include several small jig heads, which makes fishing these lures very easy.

Answer: I bought these for my husband and they are NOT pre rigged

Answer: No but they are really easy to rig. Similar to the trout magnets

Answer: There is one but the rest are not. They are very easy to rig.

Product reviews of Trout Magnet Trout Slayer Kit - 20 Crawdad Bodies and 8 Size 6 Long Shank Hooks

Amazon Customer : Happy

Great product, package arrived earlier then expected.

Amazon Customer : Crappie killers

Good lures

Bubaa : The Ultimate crappie slayer....

Should call this Crappie slayer instead..didn't think much about this lure until I tried it. Crappie fishing was slow...until I tried it...cast after cast...caught 110 crappies on the wknd. 90% were on this lure...the rest was trolling a lucky bug. My best record previously was 25 crappies using the lucky bug. This lure blows the rest away..

N3al : came quick and on time

came fast, packaged well, nice informative booklet, all it slayed for me last weekend was the moss at the bottom of the lake lol. no luck, powerbait caught em for me. will try again!

Nakedfrog : Noce

Nice set of lures.

Eric : Was exited package came in until I picked it up

Received an empty package today

Kristal : Does its job...

Does its job... Really like this little pack of mud bugs. Great for fishing for bass or trout. Have a great time fishing.

clarence baugher : Fish love it

Great price and fish love it

mark slish : Great product

Used these last week for some crappie fishing and small mouth . Worked great I used a little crawdad sent on them and I was putting fish in the boat . I was fishing small brush piles . And for those saying there small hooks. I put a 3 pound large mouth in the boat you just need to take your time and play the fish . Also got a couple perch and big bluegill on them . Really like how compact the container is . Takes up little to no room in my bag .

Jill McClain : Crawdad Bodies Are Very Small

The crawdad bodies are very small. They are just under 1 inch in length and really skinny in width. If you only want to catch small fish they seem fine.

Christine : Size is decieving

I bought this to use for fishing. I wanted some of these and they are good but the amazon picture is deceiving they look way bigger in their picture, I took one to reference and they still look bigger then I thought but box size is actually 4 and 3/4 in. by 3 in. And the little craw dad's are about 1.5 inches in size.

daryl : Awesome bait

Good quality

Caracy : Trout SLAYER kit. Nice selection. Catches more than just trout!

First: This is for the Trout SLAYER Kit. NOT trout magnet. Trout SLAYER. Made by the same company. Slightly different product.
My first pic shows the front of the box because for some reason the Amazon listing I saw didn't include it. My second pic is a close up of the front label which includes most of the specs.
There are EIGHT hooks. Jig heads really. Eight. One more than seven. One less than nine. For whatever reason no one seems to be able to count the hooks in the Amazon picture.
They are SIZE six. 6 is the size. (Holy hand grenade!) The kit calls them long shank hooks. My third pic shows them next to the soft plastic baits.
The jig head weight is 1/64th of an ounce. One sixty fourth.
The kit comes with 20 soft plastic crayfish. Four each of five different colors. The other kit comes with split tail grubs. I like the crayfish better myself. A little more movement in the water.
The trout waters near me are all stocked and heavily fished. My third cast ever with these and I got a small bass. I’ve caught sunnies as well, and the Pennsylvania rock bass love 'em! These also seem to get attention when other small grubs etc get nothing.
The hooks are a little bit lighter wire hooks. If you get snagged and manage to save it, just check that the hook hasn’t started to open up a little.
If you get a lot of short strikes, I took a quarter inch or so off the body of the crayfish so that the claws are a bit more next to the hook instead of behind it.
Be careful opening the box. Very slim-line. Not a lot of room to put fingers.
You can put all the hooks in one section and combine the one color of crayfish that is two to a section into one section and you’ve already got two spare sections in the box.
If you use a swivel the action will be a little different but it still works. If your swivel is too big, it may not fit in the eye of the hook. They are intended to be small, light weight.
Bottom line, I like these. I personally did not catch any trout on them but I wasn't always in trout waters and the stocked waters near me get fished out often. They got strikes when nothing else did and they caught their share of fish on a good day. No complaints here, I'm happy with this purchase!
***Amazon refuses to show my pics in the proper order. Therefore my references to "third pic" etc are not correct but you get the idea.***

Sandra M. Ramirez : Amazing Lures

Great for panfish and bass!

John M. : Works great!

Works great!

Haiya : good

Couldn't pass up getting this 50 in 1 kit for this low price. So many options for getting full use out of my GoPro. I am an avid bicyclist and this kit gives me a few ways to attach my camera while biking - helmet mount, head strap, chest strap, handlebar mount. Really covers all the bases. Everything I have tried out has worked perfectly and was great quality.

Om : Reliable and useful in small creeks and ponds

So far so good. I like the product I've caught a lot of different fish on it sunfish bluegill bass ever even some small trouts and they were good.

DJC : Smells like WD-40. Like the jig heads but that's about ...

Smells like WD-40. Like the jig heads but that's about it.

Barry Lee : Cutthroat/Rainbow

Though the cutthroat and rainbows out west hit dry flies, they were not interested in the trout slayer lures. Probabbly work on panfish in the midwest/south.

Jesse Kasinger : Bluegill love them!

I've caught several large bluegill with these, along with some decent large mouth bass. They work!

josh : Best artifical lure i've used.

i use em for everything, crappie, sunfish, bait fish, perch, small mouth, large mouth, rainbow trout, and brookies. The only issue i have is casting the light weight heads without using an ultralight rod, sometimes to get that distance ill use a bigger jig, or cast with the wind. don't tell on me but ill even tie em on a fly rod. i'd recommend buying a tackle organizer, the one that comes with it distorts and becomes useless.

Amazon Customer : May need a little weight to cast. A small split shot will work.

No trout in South Georgia but works great on bluegill and crappy.

josh : Best artifical lure i've used.

Amazon Customer : They just plane work!

I haven't had the chance to fish for trout with these yet, but they're lethal for bass (smallmouth and Kentucky) and panfish! Will definitely be ordering more in the future.

daryl : Awesome bait

Good quality

leoand : got fish?

Trout slayers is a great lure for fresh water fishing. I have caught many pan fish every time out without fail.Want fish, try this product.

Mountain Man Bob : Catching Fish

So far, each one I've tried has caught me a fish. Cheap box that they come in can't handle much abuse.

John M. : Works great!

Works great!

B Foster : Five Stars

Thanks, arrived as advertized!

Dave F : Best lure by far

Just went fishing today in a heavily fished lake. In 4 hours we (2of us) landed 30 bass, 18 crappie, bunch of bluegills. My record in 2 hours of fishing is 47 crappies and 6 bass. Incredible lure. Sad to see some companies charging double the normal price. Amazon should cancel their account.

Andrew : Slays trout

Great variety but the packing doesn’t last. Plastic warped and caused all contents to spill out.

Haiya : good

Pat : Very small but amazing

When I ordered them I thought and was hopping they wouldn't be big and I was right they are approximately 1 inch long and come with descreete hooks the trout at the creek only go for this already caught 5 within 30 min trout love the white and glitter green one. I was thinking if giving it a 4 star for coming with 3 broken hooks but hey there were still 4 good ones amazing product must buy if u want the fish

Amazon Customer : May need a little weight to cast. A small split shot will work.

No trout in South Georgia but works great on bluegill and crappy.

Bubaa : The Ultimate crappie slayer....

Kristal : Does its job...

Does its job... Really like this little pack of mud bugs. Great for fishing for bass or trout. Have a great time fishing.

Craig : Bad packaging, good lures

Box cam all tore up. Lid won't shut. But they fish ok.

BEN : Needs more hooks.

The crawdads are a great lure for bass, brim, red eyes etc... The hooks are a little longer than the hooks that come with the trout magnets and you don't get very many. Good product but you probably need to buy a few more of the elongated hooks.

Anthony Vang : Great product

Crappie and bass love these. Mud bottom conditions. You drag or pop these guys on the bottom and it will get bit. Tried small swimbaits to small worms, nothing not even a nibble, even when I'm catching fish in the same area where I caught fish on these micro craws. Limit out on crappies but only kept what I wanted to eat. 10/10 I would buy again.
