Heddon Super Spook Boyo 3" Topwater Fishing Lure, 3/8 Ounce

Perfect small size with big enough hooks…10 rating

I use this bait earlier in the season when bait is smaller down around the chesapeake bay. Trout, striper, puppy drum, etc love it!! The color scheme on this particular bait seems to get the bites so I'll keep throwing it.

Nice paint and finish and the hooks and rings look OK, can be replaced if you are fishing heavy line or a tight drag and are concerned with bend-outs. I've read at least one review saying they felt there wasn't much difference between Super Spook Boyo and Zara Puppy spooks, and initally I also wondered the same, so let's disect these a bit.For starters, they both are about 77mm in length, but the Boyo is fatter, about 16mm across the body measured just behind the front hook eye--the Puppy measures about 14mm in the same place. It's only a couple millimeters but visually it makes quite a bit of difference. I whipped out my mini scale and the Boyo weighs in at about .33oz/9.35 grams, whereas the Pup is about .25oz/7.22grams--so you can see begin to see a separation emerging.Next, the Boyo has a large ball-rattle housed just fore of the rear hook--the Pup has NO rattle! The Pup is relatively silent, the Boyo isn't! That's an important difference. If you are fishing heavily pressured waters, I'd think the silent presentation (no rattles) would be the choice.The Boyo appears to have size 4 trebles and it looks like size 6 on the Pup. The Boyo came with a split ring on the nose, the Pup did not, so I added a size 3 ring myself.I took both over to the local pond for a splash and they both cast very well on my 6 1/2' casting rod, which is medium power/fast action, rated for lures 1/4 to 3/4oz and 10-20lb line--I'm getting both these out there about 25 yards or more. The Boyo gets about 5 feet more distance if that, they both cast about the same--like a bullet.I'm still learning to walk these consistently but both walk fairly easily, with the Pup a little easier to get dancing side to side. The rattle in the Boyo is plenty loud, by the way.I hope this helps everyone--there are lots of new and improved (and sometimes expensive) topwater walking plugs available nowadays, but the spook is no slouch. It's caught lots of fish for lots of years.I'm looking forward to seeing if the old magic works for me with the Boyo and Puppy versions.

The Heddon Boyo is a size between the Super Spook Jr and the Super Spook. This one works at a faster cadence. Spooks have quickly become my go to topwater bait highly recommended anything from Heddon Lures!

Item was of stunning quality! Remarkably speedy dispatch. Magnificent packaging.

Been using Heddon Spook jrs for years now. But when I found out they came out with a boyo that is 3" vs the Jr that's 3.5" I had to grab a few.There's a few reviews on here saying these baits are to small , they won't catch big fish only small fish and other ridiculous comments. All those comments are completely false and are coming from people that don't know how to fish. Most real anglers know Small baits have a place in your box just as much as a bigger bait especially inshore fishing.As winter approaches and the bigger bait goes to deeper water and the smaller bait comes to the shallow / stays in the shallows this bait will produce just as much if not more then the bigger baits like the Jr or the super.Few things I definitely recommend when purchasing this bait is..1. Remove the split ring off the nose and use a loop knot instead. The bait works and floats better this way.2. If using treble hooks buy a new set for these baits. Heddon uses cheap hooks and they bend out very easily.3. Use a treble hoom in the front and a inline hook in the back. My hook up ratios have improved so much by doing this and it's so much easier to deal with a fish with only one treble vs two.Definitely recommend this lure to any freshwater/ saltwater angler.

Works OK but treble hooks are a pain in the butt. Wish they would make it with single hooks also

Color was cool, action, o k, very light.Lure properly cost< 50 cents to make.
