Bomber Lures Who Dat Spoon Spinner Bait Fishing Lure

These were all the rage a few years ago and then kind of dropped off down here for redfish. These are kind of heavy and can cast them a mile. Work pretty well in grass but starts to get the gold knocked off of it after a handfull of fish smash it.

The Bomber Saltwater Grade "Who Dat" Rattling Spinner Spoon - Gold tone from Bomber is a 3" long gold painted spoon like luer with a large 5/0 sized plated hook. It has a guard with a swiveled gold spinner at then end of the plastic and is attached with a screw, which could be removed. When fished for larger saltwater fish, it is a little bit bulkier than the usual spoon, in that is made with a rattling cavity "throat" at the eye end of the body up front to give it a hefty weight forward look. The rattling heard when holding the hook and swivel to keep them from moving is a low pitched clicking rattle. The size of this specific hook is comparable to a 5/0 Strike King hook and it weighed 0.84 ounce on my digital scale. The sound and wobbling, clicking and spinner flash may intimidate a finicky feeding smaller fish, but this luer will only make a big Bull Red Drum hungrier. Big Specs also should not be scared of this spoon and the shiny gold spoon is a proven offering for both redfish and trout. Bomber has offered a uniquely designed product with the Who Dat Rattling Spinner Spoon and the later reviews from buyers will determine if it will catch fish. Good luck with it and enjoy your next day fishing.I took pictures with my phone and have tried to add them to the product pictures, haven't seen them yet.

Bought as a gift

It gets dusty sometimes. I tie it to the end of a fishing line and cast it out and then real it in. It gets clean pretty easy. Looks good under water. Weeds don't like it.

The rattle seems to scare fish more than attract them. Who dat approached and I watched the fish say See Ya scatering quickly. I did manage to catch a small jack. The way the hook sits makes it very hard to set the hook ( See Comparison pic compared to a standard spoon). I was able to snag the fish on the gill when he spit it out which is more luck then performance.The red beads came off after a short while of use which was very disappointing. The lure itself does not really spin but it sways in a rocking motion. Combine the action with the red beads and I think it might perform best as a shrimp skipping along the bottom, but with the beads not staying attached this was not very viable See pic).I struggle to see what type of fish this was made for. The hook placement deep in the body vs protruding makes a clean snag very difficult (See comparison hook placement to a traditional spoon in pic).The only good points I found were1. The Who Dat casts like a champ! On a calm day I can easily toss this fella as far as I like with little effort. On a windy day if I put the wind to my back the lure acts as a sail and goes easily farther than any other lure I have casted that did not weight 3 ounces.2. The motion combined with the beads may have a spot in your gear bag as an artificial shrimp or crab.3. It is very reflective, Where I fish there are a lot of rocks. The lure took a beating and showed wear and tear but kept its shine very well. The hook turns to silver after only a few casts but that is not really a big deal IMO.Final thought... If you are constantly fighting wind in extremely murky water, then this may be worth giving a go. If you are a spoon enthusiast then I recommend you look else where. This is BARELY a spoon and hardly acts like one

This is one of my Favorite Spoons , Wish they made more Colors and Bigger Sizes?

Poor Quality. The two orange rattles on the weed guard disappeared on the first and second cast. No end caps to keep them from flying off. WTF. Use a swivel because all but the slowest retrieve sets it spinning because the one I received had an offset hook throwing off the action of the lure. Great Idea. Poor Quality Control. Save your Money. Review does not allow 0 Stars or I would give the Who Dat 0 Stars.Who Dat? More Like Who Da Quality Control Department?

This is a real conundrum. First of all, this is about the best casting lure I have ever owned. It just goes and goes and goes. Second, it's the most weedless lure I've ever owned, and I have a lot of weedless that work well. Lots of shallow lakes and ponds here, so there are always lots of weeds to get tangled up in. Third, it has great action, it rattles and it's colorful. So it should catch tons of fish. In two seasons of trying this lure, I have yet to get even a hit on it. Go figure......

Fantastic lure! Easily runs through thick weeds and the like go crazy for it
