Spanish killers
Came across some nice looking jigs/lures between Academy and Walmart the other day and thought I would share. The top two(gold and silver) are made buy Manns and are called Little George. 1/4 oz lead weight, it's like a combination between a jig and a buzz bait. With that flashy buzz spoon I expect these things to be massive Spanish killers. The others are Buccaneer Banana Jigs. 1/4 oz jigs as we'll. They hVe a slight curve to them so the will flutter as you jig them. Should work pretty well also.

Little George's are popular with bass fisherman who vertically jig them in deep water. I also know a few guys who bounce them off the bottom in deep channels for redfish.

You can cast a Little George a country mile. Caught many a suspended smallmouth on the bluffs at Wilson Lake on the 1/2 oz size.

James tried the Little Georges last year with no luck on Spanish.Not sayin they wont work but we also tried a big Rooster Tail.Seems as though I remember Spanish were biting pretty good at the time and they weren't interested in the spinners.I know the spoons will work great.
Well, after several hours making phone calls, I was able to track down a certain manufacturer’s service center in California. Thankfully, they agreed to send out my needed parts. These were left over...
You would think I would know this!
