I have used the Banjo on 5 different fish outings with just 4 Bass caught. They look great in the water so I am not sure why the Bass didn't hit. The hooks seem to rust very fast. I am not bad mouthing them just saying they didn't work out for me but they do have some very good reviews so they are worth giving them a shot.

Rated 5 out of 5 by pdl357 Needs more work!
I've been seeing the infomercials on the banjo minnow for years and have never wanted to try them. Well I finally decided now was the time.I ordered the banjo minnows went to the lake and tried them out. On the lake for 7 hours and caught ZERO fish! Tried one of my favorite rubber lures from bass pro and caught my limit in just one hour. So needless to say, I'm not to high on the banjo minnows!!
I am however very satisfied with Bass Pro for their speedy delivery and their ability to take care of their customers in a very timely manner.I have never had one problem ordering and receiving my purchases.
Thank you Bass Pro, on a job well done. My five stars are for Bass Pro not the banjo minnow.

A:
I've never heard of Lake Anna, but if she has Bass in her I'm pretty sure they will catch them. As far as the best size to use; You'll have to let the fish tell you that. Start with the largest size that comes in the standard kit, I think they're four inches or so and if they don't work go to the next smaller size, I think they are around three inches until you find out what the fish prefer.Details:
they have said on tv how they say it has a genetic response? Is that what makes them bite? Or is it just the that its a minnow. does even work at allAnswers
Top 500 Contributor
A:
It doesn't work. If you wanna fish minnows, stick with living ones.
Top 500 Contributor
A:
it's a genetic response lure because it looks like a dying bait fish to the bass, crappie, ect
Top 250 Contributor
A:
Yes, There is such thing as genetic response, it's similar to when a BEE, Wasp, Yello Jacket, etc... lands on your hand or arm. You simply jerk or "slap" it to get it off of you before it stings you. That was a genetic response that has been passed down through the ages. But with a Bass, they are predators and as predators they must eat when they can or they go hungry. I may not be 100% right but maybe you can understand. Ask your Science teacher they may be able to explain it better than me. GOODLUCKAnswers

i personally use the 4 inch minnows because i can't get ANY action with the 3 inch minnows...but you know, thats just meA:
The 4" minnows is all I fish with. You will catch bass 6" on up to bragging size.A:
4in or smaller i would say.
A:
In my opinion, it mainly depends on the size of the local bait fish and the size of the bass. I live on a small lake and went out a 7:00 A.M. I started using them when one of my friends brought them out. i started with the 3 inch and didnt get any thing, so i went to the 4 inch and they started following it to the boat, so i put on the 5 inch, and got a 21 inch, 7 pound largemouth.A:
i used the smallest yellow minnow with the small hooksA:
i would try the 3 inch minnow first and the work your way up from there but the 4 inch minnow is pretty much an all around size. i have caught many five+ pound bass in one of my ponds with the 3 inch yellow minoowDetails:
If no one answers I will try this out and report the answer. Looking at the video, you can work it wacky style. That makes me wonder how effective it would be on a drop shot.Answers
A:
I have tried all the ways with no luck. I think a rubber worm works a lot better.A:
no one hasA:
sure use the smallest minow u have thoughA:
I have and it doesnt workJust use the weighted eyes
A:
I HAVE JIGGED AND DROP SHOT..ONCE HIT SETTLES 90% OF THE TIME YOU GET AN INSTANT HIT
Top 250 Contributor
A:
yes actually on my review i mentioned it...the 4 in and t3 inch work great ...the cotton candy color is good but the pearl red eye is amazingAnswers
A:
just flick your wrist.A:
It depends on how the fish are feeding. For aggressive bass/fish try a frantic random jerk in a 1, 12, 1, 12 pattern.If the fish are picky try drop shot, wacky, or even carolina rigged bouncing on the bottom.
This is a great go to lure when they wont hit anything else.
A:
slow --- quick jerks --- let it die --- most of the hits come when it is sinking

I got mine off of the TV infomercial, it included a DVD with it that gave visual instructions and tips on how to work it for the best results. One way is to fish it "wacky style", "twitch-n-drop", even "dead stick" it. But the "bread-n-butter" technique is the "twitch-n-drop". And it is most effective in a clear water enviroment, because it has no rattles or sound attracters.I hope this helps you out, but don't be afraid to experiment and let the fish tell you themselves, Afterall; they can tell you better than anyone esle can.

I have been fishing with other lures and have been catching bass and when i am catching bass and i know there biting i try the banjo minnow but never have luck with it i have watched the video countless times so know im thinking im not creating the right action please help me or that was a waste of $20 thank you!Answers
A:
Sometimes you have to just figure out what the fish want. Try changing colors and different types of coverage and vegetation. I always use the jerk and real in the slack, try letting it fall longer.A:
I flip it in close to cover, lily pads submerged logs and let it fall, then i twitch rod tip and slowly reel in that slack. Generally Bass hit it on the fall. I don't use the other tecniques in the video.A:
I just jerk it a few times and stop for a few seconds and start again. I have had great success with it when I used it.A:
Have the same problem,it's a waste of money.
Top 1000 Contributor
A:
Id ask you where are you catching them before you try the banjo? These are more like a jerk bait so they are best in clearer shallow water and go through cover well without hanging up.A:
i had the same problem until i used the biggest hook and i landed most of them. If that doesnt work try going with a smaller minnow.Answers
A:
they have light 2 heavyA:
not very - small split shot weight

Top 1000 Contributor
A:
Its very good. The minnows included are of a wide range of colors and sizes, so its usable in most fishing situations, but I believe it is mainly intended for bass.
