    Oneten question?

    I just bought a few vision oneten jerkbaits. One is an LBO. These are the first ones i have purchased.....two of them do not have the small key ring / split ring on the line tie loop and the LBO has one. These are all three down eyes. Are they al supposed to have split rings?

    I believe the simple answer is yes. I can’t say I habe many MB lures, maybe 10, but every one has come with a split ring on the nose!

    I've gotten 110's without split rings on the nose before, not sure why? Put a ring on yourself and it'll be good to go.

    I easily have over 75 of the MB jerkbaits, different sizes, colors, versions and since they first came out, I've gotten them with no split rings, some of the recent ones had normal barbed (but lite wire) hooks (not the Katsuage outbarb hooks), and each one of them seems to have its own suspend signature.....I have gotten to the point I think there may be counterfeit versions of the MB products as even some of the packaging are different. I wonder if any of the MB guys would confirm they are having either quality control issues or counterfeiting issues. I get most of my baits from Tacklewarehouse and other well known web stores.....

    I have 40 or more and they have all had split rings. All outbarb hooks other than the saltwater ones. Those have stainless hooks that are unreal sharp.

    This has to be right, just checked and all the ones I got from Japan were indeed the ones without rings!

    Pro Blue and M shad did not have split rings. Does the packaging look correct?

    For what it's worth, I tend to remove split rings on jerkbaits in general and use a loop knot on them. Makes them kick out to the side more erratically in my opinion, though it may just be in my head.
