The T.N.T. baits especially the 1/2 oz ones that we have been using exclusively have worked great. Limits of Sandies, many, many, undersized Hybrids and the occasional larger Hybrid all are quite aggressive around these lures. They hit it hard, many swallow the bait, which does force us to change out the hooks occasionally, but have not had any of the paint or finish on these baits either rub off or chip off from fish. I would recommend these lures to both weekend anglers to fishing guides who fish these baits daily.

These baits are awesome. They definitely catch fish. I was on Joe Pool the other day and the sandies would hammer the bait as soon as it got down to them. There were four of us in the boat and we caught well over 100 sandies. Some baits after you catch a lot of fish on them the paint will start to rub off. These lures still look brand new. I will order more when I run out.

"Those TNT Shad Spoons are fish catching lures. They've helped make my wife a believer in slabbing for whites and stripers. Not only that, she thinks they're pretty.”

Your lures are GREAT!! I was able to limit out this weekend (4-16-05) on sandbass and hybrids in an hour on Richland Chambers. The look of them is great with a great feel on the end of the line. The hooks are wonderful. If anything they may be too sharp!!! I got myself cut on them a couple of times and they hooked any type of carpet you put them on!! Great paint + Great coating = Lots of fish!! Thanks for the great product and I know now where I will buy all of my slabs!!

I have only had one opportunity to fish your baits, I have been working 90 hours a week for the last month. I am however very impressed with the finish on your slabs and can’t wait to fish them some more. I ordered some slabs off ebay from the same mold as yours and they are way inferior!

I had the chance to try out the TNT shad and casting spoons on the hybrids last week. They worked out great! I came upon herons and egrets along a shoreline, which were gorging themselves on spawning shad. I shut down and trolled over to investigate. Boils were being caused by something large. I had a 3/4oz TNT shad spoon tied on and threw into the frenzy. Instant hook up with a 5lb hybrid! I used the shad model for the next 30 minutes and landed numerous hybrids burning it away from the bank. As the bite slowed and the fish moved out deeper, I switched to the 1/2oz TNT casting model. Bouncing it off the bottom produced at least 50 sandies and half a dozen hybrids. The most impressive part was that the finish was still intact. Thanks for building and painting them the way I like'em!

I'm a weekend angler that enjoys taking the family out fishing as much as possible. I recently purchased some TNT lures and have had good luck with them. The lures have stood up well - no chipping or fading. I highly recommend these lures.

Hey Bryon,
I just wanted to take a minute and compliment you on your product.  My son was one of the lucky winners of a sampling of TNT lures from the “Joe Pool Fishing Seminar” put on by Hall Dodd several months back.  Now typically I fish for the green slimy fish, but love to get the kids on some sandies and enjoy the incredible fight of those guys too.  I had the opportunity to use one of the casting minnow shaped lures a few months ago on a hot afternoon as I was wrapping up a pretty poor day of fishing for Blacks.  As schools started popping around me I knew I had the opportunity to give it a try.  Needless to say it was everything and more than what I expected.   I could easily cast out to fish at a distance, or when that action slowed down, watch the graph for fish under me.  As soon as I would see some below, I would drop the lure down and……….well you know the rest. Fish ON!   Finished the day with at least 20 or so that afternoon. Now then, for my story from last night.  I had taken a non boater out for one of his first trips on Pool last night.  We were catching our share of fish from the grass when we started to see small groups of baitfish boiling on the surface a fair distance behind us, but no real predators feeding on the surface.  The non boater wanted to go see what the commotion was, and figuring I could get him on some fish I agreed.  As we approached the area, my graph was showing large schools of fish under the surface, but keep in mind, nothing on the surface like I said.  I pretty much knew they were sandies and of course I went for the TNT.   First drop had a fish on.  I told the inexperienced non boater to tie on a spoon and he had 1 standard variety in his box.   After about 5-0 hookups with the TNT, we both realized there was no comparison.  I tied him on a TNT and that was all she wrote!   That evening was his best experience on Pool yet with several Blacks, Sandies, and even a crappie and a drum. I have not talked about the quality of the finish on these lures yet in my long winded letter, but they are superior to say the least.  I have heard stories of hundreds of fish caught without so much as a chip in the finish.  I probably have at least 75 or so on my one lure and nothing but marks on the hook from the pliers.  I have not even had to try out the other varieties yet because the one I use is so awesome! Anyway, sorry Its taken me so long to write to write, but wanted to thank you first of all for your donations to the anglers at the seminar.  My son is very proud of his TNT's, and also to comment on the awesome product you have.
Thanks so much,
Chad Kellner

Just thought I'd let you know how we did ( we -  is me and my 11 yr old) 100 fish - 50 in the box and ALL on the TNT's   2 hours  max... The biggest fattest sand bass inhaled them like there was no  tomorrow. I have pictures - but have to wait until Tuesday to send them.... I  think you'll like!  The new one you made for me was 5 fish in a row and  then a BIG one broke off  ( 15# Ande) it was "BIG" This is the best lure I have used all year !!!!!!!!!!  Thanks again!

I recieved them Friday.  I went to Texoma on Monday and tried them out.  The 1 oz one worked really well; in fact, I looked around and it seemed at times I was catching them 3 to 1 compared to the boats nearby.  l liked like they need to give tnt lures a try.  I caught roughly 30 fish in a two hour span and 100+ between the three of us (dad, brother, and i), but only kept 6 fish because most fish were 8 - 13 inches long. 
Thanks again, Learn

Tim Winger- Texas Angler -(and Repeat Customer) email- timwinger@hotmail.com I've caught a variety of fish on TNT slabs including catfish, drum, white bass, yellow bass, hybrids ...  It was a hot and windy afternoon as we motored out of the marina.  My buddy and I had hired guide John Varner for a mid-week birthday fishing trip.  Due to the weather, a new lake, and our inexperience with slab fishing, our confidence was not high.  But it didnt take long to start pulling in fish on the TNTs.  By the end of the evening we had boated 87 fish, including the 7 pound hybrid in the attached picture.  I have order several TNT slabs since.  My buddy doesnt even bother using his slabs anymore, he just waits for me to pull out the TNTs.  I think he has even "borrowed" a few.
