About this item

  • The Smithwick Devil’s Horse is legendary in certain regions of the country as the No. 1 topwater lure for giant prespawn largemouth.
  • It’s also an effective lure for smallmouth in clear streams any time of year.
  • Every year, the Devil’s Horse is credited on the weigh-in stage as the winning lure in multiple southern tournaments.
  • The propellers at the front and tail of the lure can be adjusted to throw more water and work slower, or bent back for a quicker, quieter retrieve.
  • The Devil’s Horse simply catches fish because it creates action without moving forward far, so you can work a fish a long time and simply tease it into striking.

Product Description

The Devil’s Horse is a classic prop-equipped handcrafted wood lure. The unique buoyancy of wood combined with two carefully balanced, surface-churning propellers duplicate the commotion of fleeing shad to produce rod-busting strikes from surface-feeding fish.

I'm glad I have this lure. For quite a few years now I've used it in all the colors it comes in and it has only produced big fish to include a jumbo bluegill believe it or not. I was amazed when that baby slammed my Devil's Horse and I felt super happy that day. Been using them ever since. Buy it if you want the same experience!

No sirve!!! No work. Las hélices no se mueven, es como tirar un lápiz al agua. No lo devolví por flojera.
