I designed the Monster Bow three years ago, and started marketing it last year.
Using the same size/weight proportions utilized on all Bow spinners, the Monster Bow is designed around a Diamond hammered, Gold, Silver or copper plated, #8 blade (largest blade made in this category). The MB has a stainless steel backbone with a tinsel strength of nearly 400 lbs. In the current versions I have incorporated a large Mustad 2/0 treble with a long broad/width tinsel skirt, attached via split ring ( may change hook for something more American) . For many years I have found wide tinsel to be fantastically productive on Pike, especially when fly fishing.
The 2” body is composed of coated brass of the same tapered beaded design as all Bow spinners.
The total weight of this thing is over an ounce, and measures to a length of 8 to 10” depending on the skirt.
Currently made in three colors, Silver, Gold and Copper.
Too no surprise, since the first, the MB has been a vacuum cleaner on Pike, and although I expected good results, I was astonished at the MB’s attraction to Bass (maybe better than Pike).
But the fish that I really want to target is Muskellunge.
For the Monster Bow to take a stand in this category it needs to further prove itself in heavy Musky fishing conditions. An acid test much like the testing all Bow spinners are put through.
To accomplish this I am going to give out a minimum of TEN sets of Monster Bow spinners, totally free of charges, to interested and productive Musky anglers. Set includes threes Monster Bows, Silver, Gold and Copper.
I want the Monster Bow taken to your favorite spot, tested against your favorite lure or bait, in conditions considered favorable as well as unfavorable.
I would like you to judge it on performance and productivity. The strength of design, is it combat ready, will it stand up to heavy weight fish? Has it earned a place in your arsenal, and do you like it?
All the math and stats are done, and look great, but that is not enough, The Monster Bow has to completely prove itself !
Interested Musky anglers, please email your name, address, how soon you need the Monster Bows, and a little bit about yourself too [email protected]

Thanks folks!
That's enough for now.
Give me a few days to contact everyone that has responded.
I'll be sending out the packages, hopefully by the end of this week in order to get these delivered by the first of June.
ES&S is a small family company. With little to no budget to place large adds, our marketing is founded souly on product quality and customer satisfaction. You are our addvertisement!
Depending on cost and results we are considering running this request again soon, so keep watching.
Thanks and God Bless!
John A. Eggers
Those folks that didn't get in on this offer can view and purchase the Monster Bow at Catch-n.com. Folks in Rochester Mn. area can go to Hooked On Fishing bait and tackle stores, in Faribault Mn. you can go to Fairbault Bait and Tackle, and in Lancaster Wi. check out Anglers Nook.
Note: Due to a future packageing change the price of Monster Bows will need to be increased, so you might want to get to these stores now. The afore mentioned stores inventories are currently low and I am considering holding off stocking of the Monster Bow until packageing issues are resolved. This may take until mid June.

Did you get your quota filled for field testers? If you need a responsible young guy in the West Metro to help out, shoot me an email. I found one of my bucktails to be quite effective on large bass, wondering if your product would have the same results.Good Luck.

I got mine last night. Man do they look sexy! Lots of flash and pizzaz. I don't chuck many bucktails early in the season to see how they run and cast. Outta the package they look like a million bucks!

Thanks Scoot,
I just e-mailed you today along with many others, to find out if the shipping went ok before I mail out any more.To all other folks that replied; I am still sorting and will be getting back to you one way or the other soon.
No more requests please, Large spinners like these are expensive to make and ship. Comparable spinners of this nature sell as high as $15 each, so I cannot afford to give out any more at this time.
Thank you for your cooperation and understanding.

I recieved mine earlier this week and have taken them out for a test spin already. They add a new look in the tackle box and I am sure they will produce. I picked up a few pike the other day using the copper tone spinner fishing shallow water on the St. Louis River.

As soon as the Muskies turn on, we will really be able to test them.

I ran the silver for about an hour on Saturday. I will say the lure looks much better in the water than out of the water. I had no follows, nothing, but it was also a slow day for my boat. We had no follows all day, I had one fish committe to a Rad Dog and I set the hook to early and pulled it away from the fish before it had a chance to engulf the lure. I do believe that these lures will produce fish, nice bright flash! They will get a shot this entire next week!

      It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.

      By Wanderer · Posted

      I haven’t done any leaf springs for a long time and I can’t completely see the connections in your pics BUT I I’d be rounding up: PB Blaster, torch, 3 lb hammer, chisel, cut off tool, breaker bar, Jack stands or blocks.   This kind of stuff usually isn’t the easiest.   I would think you would be able to get at what you need by keeping the house up with Jack stands and getting the pressure off that suspension, then attack the hardware.  But again, I don’t feel like I can see everything going on there.

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      reviving an old thread due to running into the same issue with the same year of house. not expecting anything from yetti and I already have replacement parts ordered and on the way.   I am looking for some input or feedback on how to replace the leaf springs themselves.    If I jack the house up and remove the tire, is it possible to pivot the axel assembly low enough to get to the other end of the leaf spring and remove that one bolt?   Or do I have to remove the entire pivot arm to get to it? Then I also have to factor in brake wire as well then. What a mess   My house is currently an hour away from my home at a relatives, going to go back up and look it over again and try to figure out a game plan.           Above pic is with house lowered on ice, the other end of that leaf is what I need to get to.   above pic is side that middle bolt broke and bottom 2 leafs fell out here is other side that didnt break but you can see bottom half of leaf already did but atleast bolt is still in there here is hub assembly in my garage with house lowered and tires off when I put new tires on it a couple months ago. hopefully I can raise house high enough that it can drop down far enough and not snap brake cable there so I can get to that other end of the leaf spring.
