product description

The famous Hellbender began making its way into anglers’ tackle boxes in the late 1950s. Over the years, Hellbenders have held many state and world records for most freshwater species. The unique heart-shaped diving lip design gives it a tempting wide-wobbling action. This design also makes it dive quick and deep, and allows it to flip easily over most structure. It is the consummate lure for fishing steep banks and drop-offs … down to at least 35 feet on a long flat-line troll. The Hellbender Downrigger (hookless) model is known as a budget downrigger. When trolling, the angler’s favorite trolling lure is tied 10-to-20 feet behind a Downrigger Hellbender, which will take the lure down to more than 75 feet.

Product reviews of Heddon Magnum Hellbender Deep-Diving Fishing Lure, 5 1/2 Inch, 7/8 Ounce

Michael P. : A continuing blast from the past.

I've been using Hellbenders sense I was a teenager and I'm in my 60s now. Just wish they still made the smaller version, They dive deep and usually go over structure without hanging up.

rmturner54 : Perfect for my application.

I troll with what is called a hell spoon. ITs a hell bender with a pet spoon tied on a 4ft leader. THe hell bender is strictly fora poor mans diver.

GWP : I used these to make my own white bass rigs ...

I used these to make my own white bass rigs to troll with. Lake Summerville Texas is a fairly shallow lake so this rig will bump bottom in less than 10ft of water.

Amazon Customer : they work

old school works

Clitus : Five Stars

Great product for trolling on idle

Mastercard : Good Lure

Try and true design from an old design with good materials. I have caught numerous fish since I go the lure. Very good for stopper and sandy trolling.

Gerry : great lure

Works very well for trolling with a Pet lure behind when fishing for Hybrid Striped Bass in Texas.

Chris Bence : DON'T BUY THESE FROM AMAZON!

The Heddon Hellbender is the best big bass lure I have ever used in my 40 years of fishing, but this purchase from Amazon was a literal waste of money. I purchased eight of these from Amazon in preparation for a bass fishing trip. Six of the eight lures were defective, running left, right, and on top of the water. Multiple attempts to correct the erratic running patterns failed. These were clearly factory defects and were totally useless. I attempted to return them and found that the return period had expired, I have had so many good purchases and such good service from Amazon that I didn't even think about opening up the individual lures and inspect them, thus I discovered they were all defective during my fishing trip which was six weeks after my purchase. I am so very disappointed that my fishing trip was negatively affected and that my money was completely wasted. I will continue to use Amazon, but in a much more cautious manner. In the future, I will opt to purchase many of my items from Walmart at a slightly higher price, but with a much more user-friendly return policy.

Chad : Good product

Haven't had a chance to use it yet, but it is well made. I'm sure it will catch fish. Would definitely recommend

Clitus : Five Stars
