I own a BS Willy Globe. I like the lure, but I've had issues with it. The blades have some how come out of whack. It doesn't turn like it should. I have tried to "tune" it, but have had no success. I've had a guide look at it and try to tune also with no luck. I'd like to use it, but I don't becouse it doesn't work right. A shame, I like the lure a lot. Any ideas what I should do?

I know if you could get Brad Shultz's (company owner) email and got ahold of him he would reshaft it or tune it up for shipping probably. Really good customer service.

I bought one at the pawn shop in Rhinelander last week. The "blades" were out of whack and the head didn't seem to turn very free. I did some tweaking and held it out the window for my 25 mile drive to work in Minocqua.It's worked in now. Sings like a bird! I wonder what people thought as I passed???LOL.

The blades are bent forward. Hold the bait in front of you. Take a blade and have the metal touching both screws. Your blades are cupped forward when you do this. You need to bend the blades back so that they are perpendicular to the wire shaft when they are resting on the screws. I actually like mine bent back slightly further than perpendicular.

This bait should not be jammed into a tackle box. The two big blades sort of make it a pain to store but once you learn how to tune the blades you can always keep it running good.
