Overview

The Smithwick Devil's Horse has proven to be one of the best all time prop baits on the market. The propellers on both the front and back cause commotion on the surface that a bass cannot resist. Using a stop and go ripping motion can cause the Devil's Horse to churn the water and create a noise disturbance that can draw attention from long distances. By bending the blades forward or backward you can modify the bait to be more or less disruptive, depending on the water conditions. With five fish catching colors available, the Smithwick Devil's Horse is a must have bait for those who love intense topwater action.

Comments: This is my all time favorite topwater ever. Hands down. I've actually caught 4+ on it on beds in May!!

From: Landon: Texas 3/31/23

Comments: I bought one two years ago but never really threw it that often. Ran into a guy when I was scoping out a new lake. He has one rod in his deck and told me it's all he uses and catches big fish. I rigged one up and went out to the pond behind the house. Caught my PB. I changed out the hooks and added split rings. The VMC 1X Hybrid, standard not short shank, really hooks them good. I started using then on all my top water baits and don't loose fish.

From: Dan: Melbourne, FL 3/29/23

Comments: Have used these for 50 years.  Excellenr bait.  Can be fished effectively at many speeds, though slow and subtly catches me the biggest fish. If you have trouble with blades spinning, loosen screws SLIGHTLY.  Makes a huge differences. Bending blades to greater rakes helps, too.  Also tunes sound

From: Dean: Apple Valley 5/15/21

Comments: I'm only here to buy one cuz Roland Martin says its worlds best top water bait .

Rephrase - I'm here to buy my second one cuz Roland Martin was kinda right . Such an old school lure But yeah bass seem to love this top / prop bait - not to sound like a snob but I usually only buy high dollar top water baits .. but this one is worthy - in fact very worthy of being in my arsenal . Highly recommend .. change out your hooks though after a few bass caught .. they are pretty low end ( but work fine for the time being )

From: Dean: Las Vegas, NV 8/12/20

Comments: First one I bought, the propellers would jam up and not spin. Took the it back and got a replacement, and only the rear would spin and the front would jam. Junk compared to other top water propbaits out there.

From: ee: New Jersey 10/4/19

Comments: A fantastic bait.  I use it all day and catch fish all day.  PB is 11.65 caught at noon on a sunny day.  The quality is not as good as it used to be and only 1 out of 3 float properly.  I always change hooks to Gamy EWG and use split rings on them.  Hooks up a lot better.  Do wish they would use better qualify control.

From: Unknown: 6/3/19

Comments: May as well take the hooks off! Lost multiple 5lb + spawning females on this bait. Yes it gets big bites, but a bite is only half of the catch.

From: Unknown: Virginia Beach, VA 4/12/19

Comments: this is one of the most effective surface lures ever produced! if there was ever a BIG fish bait, this is it. the originals were made better and i still have several. another smithwick lure that was as good if not better was the king snipe, no longer in production for some insane reason. cotton cordell makes/sells a similar bait with head/tail props which is plastic. i think they call them 'crazy shad'. they fish well also. i met a sales rep for smithwick at santa margarita lk. in the 70's, who did magic tricks with all the top water lures of smithwick including the 'buck n' bawl'. gone but not forgotten--- 

From: Wes: Salinas, CA

Comments: The last batch of Devil Horses I received were made terrible. The line eye was way off center and the hooks were off centered as well. This use to be a quality bait now they must only care about how fast they can package them. It's a shame they are allowing this to happen.

From: Bill: FL

Comments: amazing good price catch so many bass

From: Ben

Comments: best top water bait ever made period. every tounement i have one one my rod and i always catch a limit on it.

Comments:  Recently just caught a 7,6 two 5 and one 4 pounder on this bait within two days of fishing
