Jig it, spin it, buzz it, if it's got a wire or a lead head, it can and will be discussed in here.

1/2 oz Cavitron Questions

Post by cumara » Mon Jun 08, 2015 12:15 am

Hello, does anyone know if the prop on the 1/2 oz cavitron is the same size as the 3/8 oz?

Also, if you've fished it, does it require you to speed up the retrieve to keep it on top? Thanks!

I haven't used it as I prefer the War Eagle and I like the 3/8oz size as it seems to be perfect size. The Cavitron is a delta blade with holes frilled in it, it is only manufactured in 3 sizes, a small for 1/8oz baits, a medium for 1/4oz to 3/8oz baits, and a large for 3/8oz to 1/2oz baits. The large blade size is what the 3/8oz cavitron uses so it should be the same on the 1/2oz model meaning you will have to reel a tad bit faster than the 3/8oz but not much, in fact it will barely be noticeable.

Thanks very much for the info! That is what I was guessing, but wanted to be sure. I like the War Eagle too, but for some reason it does not seem to cast as well as some others, not sure why.
