Questions about Lunkerhunt Phantom Spider – Weedless Fishing Lure with Realistic Design, Weighs ¼ oz, 2” Length
Q:
Does anyone have any suggestions for a tackle storage box to hold these spider top water lures and the frogs? i have looked at plano, gruv, etc.
Answer: I keep mine in a plano box just fine, they fit at the bottom of one of the larger cases easily with the adjustable and removable barriers. I keep a green colored one and a natural one in the same space one on top of the other.
Answer: I use craft boxes I bought at michels
Q:
Do they float?
Answer: Yes, they do float. The Lunkerhunt Phantom Spider features a hollow body weedless design and walking legs that stride, glide, and twitch as the spider is worked across the water surface. Check out this video which shows the Lunkerhunt Phantom Spider in the water. https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=1&v=L83jgdVlRW0&feature=emb_logo
Answer: Yes they do but every so often u have to squeeze the water out of them
Q:
Why dose it keeps asking me to refresh my payment?
Q:
Is the spider 2 inches total length, or is it just the body that is 2 inches?
Answer: The body is 2” long and 1” wide. The entire width and length including the legs is approximately 3”x3”.
Answer: Mine measures 2 1/2 total
Q:
How many come in the package?
Answer: One
Answer: One
Answer: 1
Answer: Just one
Answer: 1
Q:
Does any one of the colors seem to be more effective than the others?
Answer: what ever color that makes it seam to hide
Answer: So far I’ve had the most luck with the dock color.
Answer: White spider was super productive. Black spider didn't have much luck but I also didn't use it as much since I was getting consistent action on the white one.
Q:
Does this actually catch fish or is it just a gag gift?
Answer: It catches fish - but it gets waterlogged quickly and sinks. Also, it's kind of dainty, so a big fish will destroy it.
Answer: Yes it does work. The hard part is fighting out the best way to work. It works best when fished like a frog
Answer: No it works great if you can get around some over hanging trees. I just ordered 2 more
Answer: It does but as a bait it needs work. Kinda expensive for how cheaply it’s made. After a little while it starts to take on water and sink. And if you keep getting bites you will loose the legs. My advice if you get it get 2. I give it a 4 outta 10.
Answer: Yes it does, but it has design flaws, probably every third cast you will have to drain the water out of it, if you don't it will sink. The main body will sit in the water while the legs sit on top of the water. Great idea bad design.
Answer: It is for real. There are videos online I'm sure demonstrating it.
Q:
can this be used for fly fishing?
Answer: The Phantom Spider is designed to be used with conventional fishing gear, it is not designed for fly fishing.
Answer: Depending on your line and what you are fishing for. Might be too big and a little heavy
Answer: Too big
Product reviews of Lunkerhunt Phantom Spider – Weedless Fishing Lure with Realistic Design, Weighs ¼ oz, 2” Length
Elena B : caught attention!
This spider caught the attention of a big fish right away! Sadly it punctured the spider with its teeth and the spider would then sink instead of float when casting again. Would be fun to purchase and try again.
Steven : need some adjusting
Good size, good casting weight, good overall look, but does not consistently float. First cast will float, second and third it slowly takes in water and you have to squeeze it to get the water out. Got so frustrated with having to get the water out and it sinking i took it off and went back to a frog.
Jay Nonya : Who doesn't love big fat bAss?
Bass will apparently blow up on it... so it works.
Nancy : Awesome!
Fast delivery. Can't wait to try this out. Going to order more for friends.
Danny bell : Very nice product
Added nicely to my tackle collection
Kenny Dunlap : Can’t wait to try it So lifelike
Can’t wait to try it
Hector marquez : So life like
It works amazing first cast with it and caught a 5 pound bass love it ordered more of them
Eric Newman : Yeilds big bass
1st cast in a good spot brought up a 4.2 lb bass. Super explosion. Only time I used it so far. In calm waters it creates a good ripple. I used it similar to a pop frog.
Daniel Devine : Fun!
I’ve been throwing it over low hanging branches and letting it dangle just at the surface of the water, slightly bouncing it up and down and it’s driving the bass crazy! So fun!
Kayla Harmon : Looks
It looks very realistic.
Sherry : Works great
Works great
Pamela Reid : LUNKER HUNT PHANTOM SPIDER
I got this lure delivered today , used tonight 4 casts in the body of the spider ripped back from the hook area . It no longer floats :( I was enjoying it . I hope I can get it replaced . PLEASE RESPOND TO MY REQUEST . I can send back if need be . Tuesday July 20th was delivered by Purolator Used it the same night and like I said 4 casts in the lure didnt float any longer
Wisconsin native : Looks real
I have used it a few times and it seems like it will catch the fish, but I haven’t had any luck. The one downside is it seems to sink a little after a few casts. I have to squeeze it to get the water out then it will float.
I'm just saying : Bass Slayer.
Realistic and catches fish like crazy.
Stephen Baker : My new favorite
The coloration is exactly like the banana spiders that the fish here love to eat. In my first trip to the pond I caught 5 bass and missed about 6 more. This is my favorite new lure.
Julia Cart : Meh
First cast was about 10 foot off shore to get a feel for how well it casts and movement in the water. The spider looks and feels very cool but soon as it hit the water it sank. I tried two more casts and got the same results. I think the product is likely a good one but I may have gotten one that had some issues. I may buy this product again later to se if I get the same results.
Amazon Customer : Lure sinks
Lure sinks not useable
R P : Well made.
I was kinda scared because I thought the legs would be flimsy and come off. Still on it 500 casts later. And I caught my PB striper using it. I say it's a win
Blue : Doesn’t float like all LH top water crap!
It works but like all Lunkerhunt stuff it looks better than it works. 1st it sinks, again like all Lunkerhunt top water soft lures it sinks! They need to learn how to make a top water float already! 2nd it’s very fragile and for the price they need to make it tougher. The little fish I caught in the pics ripped it and now it sinks even faster and sets nose down butt up above the water and looks ridiculous! So basically worthless after one 6oz fish???? it’s a fun toy but not something everyone needs and don’t get your hopes up it’s pretty much a mantle piece.
Mark Hepfl : Great action
Spider has great topwater action. Lots of strikes. I had cheaper version legs fell off. This one is rock solid. Ordered more colors slready.
M_Fite : missed a lot of fish
The only thing i don’t like about it is that it fills up with water every few casts and you have to squeeze the water out. plus i have missed multiple fish that have hit it. i’m thinking there is something wrong with the hook placement on this lure cause the hooks are sharp.
Mike : Awesome fishing lure
I love it going to try it out when the weather gets nicer
valtown : This lure is a lot of fun!
There’s some not so great reviews about this lure but I don’t understand why. We’ve not had any of the bad experiences & these things work! They do however take some practice so I wonder if the bad reviews are the result of not really using them correctly. I will say after each bite or catch you do have to squeeze the lure to get the water out of it but you don’t have to do that after each cast if you aren’t getting any bites/catches. Also, after catching a bass we’ve not had the lures lose a leg or stop working etc as others have reported.
Shari H. : catches bass
my son catches the fish on this one it was mine but let him fish it down to nothing
Eric Newman : Yeilds big bass
1st cast in a good spot brought up a 4.2 lb bass. Super explosion. Only time I used it so far. In calm waters it creates a good ripple. I used it similar to a pop frog.
Debbie : Great product
Exactly what I wanted
Noah Frank : Scary
I just bought it to scare people works great
Jacob R. Stimpson : Big bass catcher!!
Very life like been hitting 5 to 7 l pounders all spring on it.
Amazon Customer : Junk dont buy this lure, lunkerhunt does make good lures but this is not one of them.
Horrible lure, not topwater, sinks and doesn't have good action. I would not reccomend this item to anyone. I do love the lunkerhunt frog and I have had lots of luck on them.
William : That lock real
Have tird thin yet
Shari H. : catches bass
my son catches the fish on this one it was mine but let him fish it down to nothing
Kayla Harmon : Looks
It looks very realistic.
Lawerence Bowens : is ok
i really liked the look and feel of this lure. it caught a few fish. The hooks are good and sticky sharp. The body collapsed easily of easy hook ups. The durablilty is an issue. i lost one leg on the first case. Then a second leg about three cast later pulling the lure throusom brush. i’d like to see the lure manufacturer’s come up with a more durable product. Another thing I’d like to see improved is the water tightness of the lure improved. i had to squeeze the water out of the lure about every three or four case. would purchase the lure again as well as recommended the lure. it worked for me.
SHON H. : Approved
Great product
Kindle Customer : Very frustrating
We were very excited to try this out as we had heard good things; however on the very first cast it slowly sank. We tried it several times but having to squeeze the water out of it between each cast just to have it sink became very frustrating.
SHON H. : Approved
Great product

Kathy Hampton : Doesn't float
Spiders were suppose to float on top of the water. They did not float!
Jay Nonya : Who doesn't love big fat bAss?
Bass will apparently blow up on it... so it works.
