Confused about Angle-eye


Guest

Recommended Posts

Is the angle-eye lure distributed by other manufactures, and if so is there any difference. I have an angle-eye by jb lures out of Winthrop, Mn. Can you order them just by color?

The angel eye spoons from jb are the same spoon that you will find here and elsewhere as the angel eye junior from scenic tackle.
The original angel eye spoon is called just that, the angel eye. It is quite a bit bigger than the AE junior but just as effective, Ive taken quite a few nice fish off the original angel eye spoons...Have a great ice season!! Paul

I am assuming JB also packages the glow devil as well but calls them "varmits"???????? They look awfully similar, but haven't seen a scenic glow-devil up close yet, so I could be wrong on this.

Just for your info the Varmite and Glow devil are very similar but they are a little different. The Varmite is shaped slightly different but I am sure they will work in a similar manner.

In my opinion, the Varmit in not even close to the Glow Devil. Similar in apprearance yes, but there are some MAJOR advantages to the Glow Devil if you look closely. This is my 4th year now using Glow Devils and they outfish Varmits big time.

I really like JB lures, they have great paint on them. I just don't think the Varmit is a good comparison to the Glow Devil.

Yes, it is my understanding that JB's Angel Eye and Scenic Tackle Angel Eye Jr's are the same thing. The advantage in getting Scenic Tackle Angel Eyes is the fact that you can get a card of them at a reduced price.

Maybe Jeff will jump in on this one.

Ebass - that is where I was at as well and didn't see them. But seen the varmits and angel eyes from JB and had to say to myself, apples to apples, apples to oranges???

The varmits didn't come in 1/16th oz. so it led me to beleive that they were different, and also the fact that the varmits came in "regular" and "rattle". I picked up a couple of the "rattling" ones. And One of each of the 1/8th blue, red and perch. Now I will be buying a card of the 1/8th glow devils so I can compare. And then get the 1/16th just because smile.gif

Korn_fish, that is the best way. Pick some up and check out the difference. I won't post the differences but the first time you use one will will understand what I am talking about. There are signicant differences between the Varmit and the Glow Devil. Let me know how it goes.

    • Yeah it was a beatdown
    • Your kid needs to stay with him!👍
    • My kid was eating in Beverly Hills and ran into this guy. Talked to him a bit and wished him luck in the game tonight.     
    • 🤔as a recovering machinist!🤣🤣that must make me a recovering welder!
    • As a recovering machinist, I can appreciate that.  If the spec is 0.001 - 0.0015, then clearly the correct measurement is 0.00125, duh…
    • I just figured that it is easy enough to just get a 3 bank so when the boat is not in use I can keep all 3 batteries charged. I have not bough a charger yet, maybe I will give it some more thought. Edit: After thinking this over, with the size, weight, and heat output of the charger (as well as the cost) I think it makes sense to just buy a 2 bank charger, I have a smaller charger i can use on the starting battery when the boat is sitting at home. Forgive me, for i am a retired engineer and I have to obsess over everything...
    • Congrats on the motor!  I think you’ll like it.   I can’t say much on the charger location but I’ve seen them under the lid in back compartments and under center rod lockers.  160 degrees is more than I expected to hear.   Curious why you’re opting for a 3 bank charger with a 24V trolling motor.  Unless you don’t feel you be running you big motor enough to keep that battery up as well?
    • I did buy an Minnkota Ulterra, thanks for the recommendations. I had a bunch of Cabela"s bucks saved up, which helped. Now i need to get an onboard battery charger. Where do you guys mount these things in your boat? The manufacturer I am looking at {Noco genius) says tht their 3-bank charger will run at 160 degrees, seems like a lot of heat in an enclosed compartment? Thanks for any input on this.
    • You're very lucky a troop of Sea Monkey's didn't carry you away.   
    • Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe.  I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho.  Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.
