Questions about BASSDASH SwimPanfish Multi Jointed Panfish Bluegill Swimbaits Hard Topwater Bass Lures Fishing Lure Crank Saltwater 3.5in/0.85oz

does it come with a box?

Answer: Each bait is packed in a hard PVC blister and then the 4 pack is in a bubble envelope.

Answer: No

WilI the joints tear apart easily?

Answer: Probably not, the Bait sections are jointed by thick cloth.

How do I use an Amazon gift card

Answer: Sure

Can i cast with a bait caster or is it to light

Answer: Yes, this bait can be casted with a bait caster and the bait is 0.85oz and it won't be too light for most bait casters.

Answer: No, these baits are fairly heavy, i use them on a medium 6'6" casting rod

Answer: Yes, I've had good lucky with it, it's heavier than you think. Its almost the perfect weight to cast.

Are colors as described? They look pretty good in the photos.

Answer: I just bought Bluegill color and it is exactly as described.

Answer: Yes, the colors are as in the photos.

Answer: It is as shown in photo!!!

Answer: Yes they look great

Answer: Yes, colors are exactly as pictured.

how many in a pack

Answer: ONE but if you order from Sunrise Angler you get 2 slightly different color and are 4" long for $15.00. I bought 4 total from 3 different sellers. To be very honest - haven't caught a fish yet. Been fishing in private farm pond that I know holds 2 - 8 lb+ and several 2-4 - NOTHING YET.

Answer: 1

Does this have lead in it? And if it does can someone point me to one that doesn’t

Will the back hook tangle when fishing?

Answer: I fished with it twice and the hook doesn't tangle. You can fish it in the way you fish a crankbait and reel slowly and the lure will swim well and even have realistic action.

Answer: Havn't had any problem like the action of it

Is it good for catching average bass?

Answer: I think so. I always use 3 - 6 inch swimbait and they are easily castable on normal bass tackle and they draw strikes from both numbers as well as big fish. By the way 8 to 10 inch swimbaits are usually for trophy bass.

Does anybody get strikes with this bait?

Answer: I landed 3 bass in my first 5 casts.,ranging 2.2 to 6.1 lbs out of the San Marcos river. I cast it and let it sit a bit. I twitched the rod a few times, then began an up and Don retrieval on all 3 bass, they struck on the lures upward retrieval.

Answer: I've caught a few with it in the private lake near my house where small and large mouth bass are not too many. It has a nice change in action as compared to some of my soft plastic swimbait.

The color is excellent,Does it act like a fish and does it work well?

Answer: Yes it does

I took mine out last weekend and could not get it to swim like they show. it just went in a line. what am i doing wrong?

Answer: I'm sorry for the inconvenience that you've met. I suggest you to try loop knot on the swimbait, or remove the O ring in front of the swimbait, and try again and the swimbait action will be good. I bet you will like it. Some anglers do not get used to the front O ring. ^^

Answer: try twitching the bait off the start. once it starts swimming it will have a great presentation.

Answer: First make sure there are is nothing wrong with your bait and make sure you’re jerking it when you use it

Answer: Nothing. The bait sucks you have to reel as fast as you can to make any action.

Can you catch snakeheads with these?

Answer: I don't see why not

how much weight does it have is it easy to cast.

Answer: The lure weight is 27/32 oz (24 grams) . Yes, they are easy to cast while it is possible to cast these lures with a swimbait rod but they are better suited for a traditional casting or spinning rod with a decent, but not too heavy, action.

I have 10lb. Line on my reel will this be strong enough fishing with this lure for bass?

Answer: I think you would be ok but i would find some heavier line i would use around a 15-30lb line

Does it act like a fish?

Answer: Absolutely, the joints move perfectly and look like another fish swimming.

Does it suspend?

Answer: Mine floats and when retrived it seem to go 2-3 feet deep is all. Not impressed with lure and I bought all 4 types. !!

Answer: Not that I'm aware of, you just need to find that right speed to have th full affect work. The right speed is key to making it look like a real fish.

Answer: The one I have does not , it sinks pretty fast , i have to have a steady crank to keep it off the bottom

Answer: If u mean by wiggles back and forth like how a fish swims yes it’s does

Answer: They sink.

What's the quoted price for 50 Bluegill ?

Answer: Only1

What’s the diving depth for these lures or will they sink after the cast? Float like a crank bait or sink ?

Answer: Hi, the diving depth is approx. 1ft~3ft, and yes, the bait will sink slowly.

Answer: It sinks like a rock and has no action unless you reel it as fast as you can .... junk don't waste your money.

Will these sink?

Answer: Yes, these swimbaits will sink slowly.

Answer: Yes, they are a swim bait. That's what they do and they do it well

is this lead free?

Product reviews of BASSDASH SwimPanfish Multi Jointed Panfish Bluegill Swimbaits Hard Topwater Bass Lures Fishing Lure Crank Saltwater 3.5in/0.85oz

Anonymous12 : Very impressive lure

I was skeptical as I am not used to trusting lutes over live bait. I never got on pike so well before I started using this lure. It honestly looks like a bait fish swimming through the water with the benefit of me getting to control it's speed and depth. Highly recommend.

Matthew : Best swim bait ever!!!

I bought these bassdash lures middle of 2019 and they are amazing! The action is wonderful! They look realistic! Bass eat them up! By far the best swim bait I have every purchased!!! I will definitely buy more along with other bassdash products!! Buy some! Use some and catch big bass!!

Tracy Provinzano : Cool lure

Awesome lure cant wait to use it !!

R. Perez : Irresistible to bass

A great value, durable, and irresistible to fish. If you want to catch some good size bass. I suggest you grab up a few with different colors and see for yourself.

Holly Perry : Must have for days that they aren't biting

This is a good bait set. They have very realistic movement. I love using this type of lure when I am not catching anything. I casted about 4 times before catching my the first bass.

Slippy Fist : VERY HEAVY SWIMBAIT!! Update june 2021

Decent quality but their so damn heavy it's like an atom bomb explosion when it hits the water... I really wish I would have bought only 1 to try out instead of all four... you live and you learn.

Update, tested out again and honestly idk if it was defective or what but trying to swim these slow the segments wont even move. It literally just glided thru the water without moving at all. I made the mistake of buying 4 of them before testing out 1 first. Also I broke the tail off this one pretty easy. So not very durable and I'd say not very quality material. If your looking for a budget swimbait I would definitely look elsewhere or spend a little more and get a well known name brand swimbait. Would not reccomend.

Dct : Bassin'

This is a little pricey but the bass strike hard on these. This is my 2nd as the first one was lent and the given to a friend.

R. Perez : Irresistible to bass

A great value, durable, and irresistible to fish. If you want to catch some good size bass. I suggest you grab up a few with different colors and see for yourself.

D. Mullin : Great for Bass

These work great for catching Largemouth. Look very realistic in the water. Would recommend replacing the rear treble hook with a size larger. (Missed a few until I went up a size)

Kindle Customer : Don’t believe the video!

Tried and they failed. Sunk to fast, no action whatsoever! Very disappointed.

YAOLIYANG : great details

the detail of this product is so rich. fish looks like it. it looks like a fish. also, it is covered by beautiful color. though i am still trying to get fish. but i believe, one day, fish will come.

Kris : Worth the money.

Bought for my husband he loved it.

Zach : Great

Great paint job, great action.

Yorkster : Decent but not great

Not bad little lures. They swim ok with decent motion. Not my favorite and have already been retired in one season.

Amazon Customer : Just as described

My grandson can't wait to use it. He loves it.

Russell Dunnihoo : Order now

Came in on time and a great lure

Rick : Look good but looks are Deceiving.

All lures sink like a rock and have no swimming action. I can not recommend these to anyone, sorry to say but they do look good.

Michael R Perry : Looks amazing and swims like a real fish, but no bites.

It might be the wrong time of the year for this bait, but the fish in the lakes around here aren't interested. It's a super realistic lure and it swims very realistically. Quality seems to be excellent.

William Henry : China junk.

Severely disappointed with the product. It pulls drastically to the right.

Shelley Buettner : A decently priced bluegill bait but durable and get the job done!

These are awesome swimbaits. They all get bit you just need to put your time in. Have been my #1 go to swim bait, they have proven to me to be the best lure on the water from Florida to California. When birds are hitting the water throw it out in the middle and start reeling like hell. It will get eaten. You would probably be interested in trying and they are one of the best.

T. Heunaosoa : swims like a fish - not heavy enough

This item is real life like. Would of liked it if were a little bigger and heavier so it can be casted further.

Matthew : Best swim bait ever!!!

Amazon Customer : Wow! What a great bait!!

What can I say? I don't catch fish, like... ever. (Except maybe small sunnies the size of this bait)
But I was like, ok, I'll buy a travel fishing rod and heck, I'll get this bait that seems pretty cool.
Sure enough, I get the line spooled on the reel, and head out to the boat dock, laughing at myself
for having the notion of catching anything.

3 casts later and I'm sitting there hauling in a 14" small mouth, completely astonished......

I may have to buy a spare in case I ever lose this. Super happy!!!!

Russell Dunnihoo : Order now

Came in on time and a great lure

spencer longshore : .I caught a huge bass 7 lbs on the first cast...crazy!!

This looks exactly like a bluegill swimming along..I caught a huge bass 7 lbs on the first cast...crazy!!

Tracy Provinzano : Cool lure

Awesome lure cant wait to use it !!

Cenla Cindy : Looks real!

I was so shocked how realistic this lure was. Then when I threw it on the lake and watched it swim bAck to me, I was hooked. The 3rd cast of the day I caught a juvenile bass. Next I'm ordering the multi-pack!

James A Horsfall : Great little lure.

Great swim action, very responsive. Easy to manipulate it to look like a wounded fish. Caught a LMB on the first cast.

Reconron : Quality craftsmanship great value

I don’t like wasting my money this particular product gets five stars due to the quality Craftsmanship these particular lures are a steal for the value ,and yes you do get quality fish right away unless you’re fishing in the empty lake or river ????????????????

Big Jr : Nice lure

A little heavy but nice lure

David Villafane : Throw the big lure for the big fish

So I got this thing yesterday and I went straight to the lake, after an hour or so of not getting any bites with a jig I switched to this this and after a few casts, boom. I did notice that the hooks do get stuck between the segments once in a while and you can feel it doesn’t swim correctly. Right out out of the box I noticed the mesh might be already peeling so we’ll see how long it holds. Pretty satisfying with the results on the first day thought. Definitely worth the 10 bucks, the colors and definition and pretty good.

Reconron : Quality craftsmanship great value

Mike A2Z : Hooked a 30" Northern Pike

This was a gift to my 11 year old grandson. While fishing, he hooked a 30 inch northern pike. Unfortunately the fish tore the line. So, now I need to order hem another plug.

Kevin : Actually works

I’m always skeptical when buying fishing lures. Every company claims there products are the best. These fish were caught in Clear Lake in Northern California in the summer time. The lake is covered in thick weeds and is difficult to fish this time of year.

I found a spot with less weeds and tossed this lure in. Second cast….. caught a great size bass. A few minutes later, I caught another one! I had tried about 6 or 7 different setups that morning. This was the only one that caught bass.

YAOLIYANG : great details

the detail of this product is so rich. fish looks like it. it looks like a fish. also, it is covered by beautiful color. though i am still trying to get fish. but i believe, one day, fish will come.

Tordek : Boss

Item came extremely early cant wait to try it out this summer

NB : Sweet Swimmer

This recovering spawner gobbled down this bait like a fat man at a free BBQ. Looks real good on the swim with a regular tie and even better with a loop knot. I lost it on a submerged stump (my fault.) Ordered two more that night and another two for my son. This is a fun bait to pull and really chases the bait fish back to the boat. Gave it a 4 on durability since I've only fished them one day. I'll update if that changes.

Bill from Denver, PA : Great Lure

I was very impressed with this lures swimming action. Hooks were very sharp. My only compliant is on about 25% of my casts, the back hook would get hooked around the back of the lure. Outside of that it's a great lure. Sadly I lost it before I caught a fish on it. But as good as it looks in the water I'm sure it will. I will buy more when I get the money for them.

David Villafane : Throw the big lure for the big fish

Michael Jenkins : Excellent

Very nice...

Joe : Fun, cheap swim-bait.

I wanted to try a lure like this for a long time and i was not about to spend crazy money on a lure i had no idea how to use or how it performs. In terms of value, this is worth it. These swim baits have great action and look like a real swimming fish when the are reeled in. I can not speak for the durability just yet, but i am curious to see how the joints hold up. So far so good.

Bailey Clevenger : Christmas gift, looks awesome

Bought this as a gift for my father in law it looks amazing and very durable. It's a good sized lure. Not sure on how well it works but either way hell love it lol

Dal Adams : Fake fish

Looks good

Yorkster : Decent but not great

Not bad little lures. They swim ok with decent motion. Not my favorite and have already been retired in one season.
