Sports fishing vetran and outdoor writer Cory Schmidt took MagnaBait for a test drive in a Lake near his home in Brainerd Minnisota.  Just like most vetran fishermen, he had tested product after product which claimed to help catch more fish only to be routinely disappointed. Moreover, as a sports writer, Cory was even more sceptical. 

After all, MagnaBait made claims that it could double his catch.  Boldly it offered a "No Bull Test" with a money back guarantee.  So he decided to give it a try.  He took the device and his equally sceptical fishing buddy to nearby Twin Lake to see if this device could genuinly help them catch more fish. Here is what happened in Cory's own words:

“As an outdoor writer, I field test a lot of new fishing products.  Honestly, most with claims like MagnaBait rarely work as advertised.  So at first, of course, I was naturally doubtful.  But was I ever wrong!  On our first trial, my partner and I simply submerged the unit near bottom, under a marker buoy, along a straight section of weedline.  This was no fishing hot spot—just a regular drop off where fish occasionally pass.  If MagnaBait was truly the fish magnet it was purported to be, this would be a great test of its powers.

First drift by the buoy, first drift-- BAM!, my partner and I hit a double-header of 3-pound bass.  I’m thinking, ok, that was cool, but it had to be a fluke, right?  We continue working down the shoreline at the same depth, and never caught another bass.  We then turned the boat around and proceeded to cast jigs back into the MagnaBait™ area, within a roughly 30-foot radius of the unit.  Again, first cast, no kidding, first cast, I get bit—another nice bass.  While I’m releasing mine, my partner pops another one—same area!  So this time, we stay put, and inside half an hour, boat six more nice largemouths and a couple decent northern pike.  I look at my depthfinder, which now shows a multitude of “hooks”—those unmistakable fish marks, virtually surrounding the MagnaBait.

Finally, my partner and I look at each other, and just shake our heads and laugh.  Both outdoor industry veterans, we’re always skeptical of new fishing technology.  But at that point, we simply could not deny it—something good was happening down there.  And MagnaBait was the only explanation for our sudden bass jackpot.  I cannot wait to try this product in other situations and bodies of water!  MagnaBait has the potential to be a huge technological angling breakthrough.” 

Thanks for that great story Cory! We couln't be more pleased to hear how MagnaBait made your fishing day much better. Nothing makes our day better than to hear stories of how our customers are having a great days catching more fish using MagnaBait.
