46) Louis Diehl, Northern Indiana, I've been looking for your site for years, but I never saw the name of the lure co on the spoon until today. I've caught loads of fish in the middle of dozens of boats and people, when they weren't hardly catching any at all. Time to order more.

43) Jerry McEldowney, Versailles, Ohio, I have to tell you; I am so glad you are doing these again. I found out that Scott had sold the company and I cried. But, he said you were his friend and you are doing them again. We use them in Canada and catch tons of Smallmouth. Love the Mite, you are the best. MADE IN THE USA!!!! go Hofmanns.

42) Brian Everhart, Hiawatha, Kansas, I came across several Spinning Queen Spoons still on the cards with the Lakeview Address. I think these will go on the display rack, beautiful spoons.

41) Rick Cadarette, Louisville , KY, Hi! I've been using these since I was 8 years old when my dad gave me my first. I'm now 53 and can't tell you how many fish I've caught using these. I can tell you it's the best spoon ever made and one lure that I've been able to call on when all other's aren't working. It's nice to see someone is caring on. thank you.

40) Jay Skokie Il., The Frizz Lure is the best. The only problem is, that it catches too many Northern Pike and that means too many bite-offs and lost Frizz Lures. Gotta keep making those Frizz lures to keep them Northerns happy.

39) Craig Banks, Louisville, Kentucky, Seeing the frizz for the first time in 30 years took me back to my dad and me fishing when i was eight. Thank you for keeping this lost treasure alive and bring back fun memories with my dad!

35) Ron Baker, Reelfoot, TN, I am so glad we found you. There is no better lure than the Frizz's spoon for the crappie in TN. We love your lure and were down to our last 3; found you on the internet. THANKS
2008-02-29 12:00:42

34) Harvey Septon, Oscoda, MI, We just came back from Lake MI and caught all kinds of fish on your KINGS. Walleye, trout, bass, and even some fish that we were not even sure what they were. It really does catch them all!!!! Thank you

33) jim schowe, east central Indiana, Three weeks ago I saw some guys using rooster tails catching rainbows and wondered what I had in my fly box that might work mimicking the flashing of the rooster tail's blade. I had my one and only Hofmann's spoon, silver and white and took more than eight nice trout with it. I realized that I had this bait in my tackle for more than four years and didn't use it. So, I ordered 48 more in assorted colors. In the last three weeks, since I started using the spoons I have caught large and small mouthed bass, pan fish, trout and some big ole monster that took my fly line into the backing before breaking my two pound tippet. I sure wish I knew what kind of fish that was, but I do know that I was using a Hofmann's gold spoon with black feathers. Good work Hofmann's!!! I am sold!!!

32) Forrest Nicholas, Elkhart, IN, My dad and I used these lures in northern Wisconsin in the late 50's to catch many large crappies. Always used them to search for crappies then switched to other bait/lures we could afford to lose. Glad the product line continues. Thanks.

31) Harry Vardon, Lakeland, FL, This is the most versatile lure I have ever used. We catch freshwater fish and salt water fish on your kings. We have caught bass to bon fish and even little alligators. Keep them coming. Thank you.

30) Kevin Brush, Johnstown, OH, Purchased your lures at the Columbus show. I can't wait to use them. When I do, I will send you a pic of my catch.
2007-02-13 17:52:21

29) Roger Casto, Columbus, Ohio, It was very nice to meet you at the Columbus Sport, Vacation and Boat show. I am looking forward to trying out my new mighty mites this spring. I'll let you know how they perform.
2007-02-12 10:45:59

28) Brad Westbrook, Gilroy, CA, I purchased one of the silver spoons with a white tail from a retailer that went out of business several years ago. This lure quickly became my prized possession as I could always count on it to get freshwater brook trout. I have rescued this same lure several times from various snags I've encountered. My last trip I was five casts for five fish with this lure ! ! Incredible! ! Glad you're back in operation so I don't have to keep chasing my snags.

27) Bernie Poeppelman, Fort Loramie, OH, Saw the write up in the Dayton Daily news. I love panfishing and will definitely give these mitey-mites a try.

26) Jack Hill, Grand Prarie, TX, I recently sent you a picture of a 34'' Muskie caught on a 5wt. Fly rod using a Hofmann's fly spoon. Well to top things off, my wife and I were fishing this weekend and caught over 70 white bass and stripers using the same spoon. It got to where we were disappointed if we stripped in the line and there wasn't a fish on the end of the line. There was a boat full of guys sitting close by and they couldn't believe it. I'm sure you guys will be getting some orders from Texas.

25) Jay, Skokie, IL, So who is Hofmann's? Whomever they are, thank you for such a super lure. I just got back from a two day trip from a southern Wis. lake and couldn't keep the slab crappies off the Frizz lure. It out produce live bait and the expensive Rosy red minnows. Thanks again for a super great lure!!!!

24) Ken Gilburg, Newport, VT, After purchasing your lures I went fishing on Lake Memphremagog and had great success with trout using your King & Queen lures.
2006-09-25 18:03:58

23) Bill Robinson, Rotonda, FL, Was fishing in Minn. last week and did well with the King and Queen. The water was pretty churned up by later in the week so we had to almost hit'em in the nose before they'd hit.
2006-09-25 18:03:11

22) Rev. Arthur Tripp, McAurthur, Ohio, I want to tell you a little about those lures you have. We have used them for several years. They take more Bass, bluegills, crappies, than any other lure we have ever used. We have hooked five pound bass with those little lures. The trick and fun came in when we were landing these fighters with the light tackle. We are sold on your lures, and state they take more fish under any or all conditions. If they will not strike your lure they just won't hit a thing.
2006-09-25 18:01:55

21) Walter Protzman, Brookville, Ohio, On a recent vacation trip to Michigan, we caught a total of 365 fish. 90 percent of them were caught on your lures. There were days when we could not catch a thing on live bait, but your lures never failed us once.
2006-09-25 17:59:44

20) Andrew Stack, Fairfield, CA, I don't believe there's a fish anywhere that will not hit the Frizz original flyrod spoon. Your lure is one of the very few I have found that really handles well on a flyrod and the only spoon that roll casts well. I haven't found the fish that won't take it in fresh or salt water. In addition to bass, bluegill, crappie and trout, I have taken channel cat, carp, buffalo, striped bass, drum (white perch), walleye, pickerel and even a small alligator. In salt water, bon fish, bonito, tuna (small ones to 20 lbs), black and red snapper, sea trout, weak fish, salmon, cod, and others I cannot name. If I had to pick one lure...need I say more.
2006-09-25 17:57:53

19) Paul Shaaf, Dayton, Ohio, Have had plenty of strikes on your flyrod spoons so didn't hesitate when I saw your new spinning and casting spoons. Still can't understand how you can get so much action! No more messy pork rind and all the flash in the world. The nylon tail seems to breathe. Most important, I think, is that it's plenty weedless.
2006-09-25 17:53:11

18) David Roos, Louisville, KY, I've been looking for these little spoons for 40 years! Caught loads of perch on them in Wisconsin as a kid and have one rusty one left in the tackle box.
2006-09-25 17:51:28

17) Tom Clayton, Isle,MN, while fishing with Bob Macky the Malone island guide I never caught so many jumbo perch using the frizzie.

16) DAVID EITUTIS, TROY GROVE, ILLINOIS, I have 6-8 boxes of the old ones and one I use from. GGGGGGLAD YOU ARE BACK IN BUISNESS. Thanks for a great old time product!!!
2006-09-12 22:33:02

15) Bob Mackey, Malone Island Guide Service, Mille Lacs Lake Minnesota, I love the fly casting spoon in gold. We use it on all panfish, perch, walleyes. Northern lovem too.
2006-09-08 15:12:38

14) Lee Smith, MN, A friend of mine let me try one of his small frizzy's. Unbelievable difference! It works better than other tackle I have used on Perch, Sunfish, Walleye.
2006-09-04 12:07:11

13) E Woods, Florida, I was given your Queens as a gift, they are outstanding. I have caught bass from 1 pound to 7 pounds. Great Lures, i will buy some more myself.
