The Buchertail 500 Tinsel is built on a new concept focused on making a downsized version of the popular Buchertail 700 that casts and works like a full sized musky spinner. Unlike most downsized in-line spinners, the Buchertail 500 Tinsel has the same weight as our larger Buchertail 700 and an oversized treble hook. This design allows you to cast the 500 easily with a full sized conventional musky rod & reel outfit. The additional weight also allows the angler to retrieve this lure faster to trigger more strikes from following muskies and big pike.
