Pros & Cons
Pros
These are really nice lures. Just the right size for light spinning or spin cast tackle. Florida bass seem to love it. This is an old design that just keeps on working and catching fish.
Cons
The treble hooks are horrible, recommend to switch them out. Once it gets within about 15 feet of you, its so light it just starts lifting out of the water. The hooks are worthless garbage.
Highlights
Quality
Good quality and a bit larger than i expected
I have been a fan of heddon lures since the 1950s and quality is still good
Ive had very good success with the puppy
Competitiveness
A bit smaller than its brother the zara spook jr

The 4 stars instead of 5 is for the hooks that come on the puppy version they are too small and too weak for a big bass
