Bionic Fly Fishing Bait, Flies Fishing Lures Kit Trout Jigs Review
Our verdict
The Bionic Fly Fishing Bait Kit packs 18 carbon steel flies into one $8.99 order, undercutting the per-fly cost of the 12-piece Adams 1010 at the same price and beating the 4-piece Mouse 1015 outright. A 4.3 star average across 119 reviews and 100+ bought last month make it a reasonable stock-up pick.

Anglers who want to load a fly box with a wide spread of patterns for $8.99, using carbon steel hooks across 18 flies rather than paying similar money for a dozen or fewer from Adams or Mouse.

The overall score is owner satisfaction weighted by how many reviews back it, so a high rating from few reviews counts for less.

Context, not marks against it, and our read of the data, not a lab test.
Overview
Restocking a fly box before trout season usually means choosing between one or two proven patterns or spreading the budget across more flies. The Bionic Fly Fishing Bait Kit takes the second route, packing 18 pieces into a single $8.99 order built around carbon steel fly hooks.
At 27.22 grams total, the kit stays light enough to slip into a vest pocket or a small fly box compartment without adding real bulk. The carbon steel construction and fly hook technique put it in the same functional category as the dry-fly options from Adams and Mouse, just at a higher piece count per dollar. Eighteen flies for under nine dollars works out to roughly 50 cents per fly, undercutting the Adams 1010 twelve-pack and far outpacing the four-piece Mouse 1015 at the same $7.99 price point.
The review picture is solid but not the deepest in this comparison. A 4.3 star average across 119 reviews sits just under the Adams Assortment's 4.4 stars from 292 reviews, though it matches the Adams 1010's 4.3 average almost exactly. Bought last month sits at 100+, the same tier as both Adams listings, while the Mouse 1015 shows 0+ bought last month despite its own 111 reviews. For anglers prioritizing quantity and a mid-4-star track record over the single deepest review history, this kit fits the bill.
Pros
- 18 flies per kit at $8.99, roughly 50 cents per fly
- Carbon steel construction on every hook in the set
- 27.22 gram total weight keeps the kit light in a vest or box
- 4.3 star average holds up across a real sample of 119 reviews
- 100+ bought last month shows steady, ongoing demand
- More pieces than the 12-count Adams 1010 or 4-count Mouse 1015 at a comparable price
Cons
- 119 reviews trails the Adams Assortment's 292, a smaller sample to judge consistency
- 4.3 stars is a shade below the Adams Assortment's 4.4
- At $8.99 it costs a dollar more than both Adams options
- No listed feature details beyond material and hook count, so pattern variety within the 18 pieces isn't specified

Performance notes
Carbon steel is a standard hook material for budget-friendly fly and lure kits, offering enough stiffness to hold a hook point through a strike without the added cost of premium alloys. Paired with a fly hook technique designation, this kit is built around the shank and gap dimensions expected for dry-fly and general trout presentations rather than a specialized saltwater or spinning setup.
The 27.22 gram total weight for 18 pieces works out to roughly 1.5 grams per fly, consistent with small dry-fly and nymph-style ties rather than heavier jigs. That keeps the kit easy to carry and unlikely to weigh down a small fly box. With 18 distinct pieces in the box, there's enough volume to experiment across several color and pattern variations in a single session, or to keep spares on hand after losing flies to snags, a common outcome on structure-heavy water.
What buyers say
A 4.3 star average across 119 reviews puts this kit in solid, unremarkable territory relative to its direct competitors. It trails the Adams Assortment's 4.4 stars over 292 reviews, a considerably larger sample suggesting more buyers have weighed in over time. It essentially matches the Adams 1010's 4.3 average, though that listing also carries more reviews at 142. The 100+ bought last month figure places it alongside both Adams products in the same demand tier, well ahead of the Mouse 1015, which shows 0+ bought last month despite 111 reviews. Taken together, the pattern points to steady, current purchasing with a rating that holds up under a moderate but not massive review volume.

Frequently asked questions
How many flies are in the Bionic Fly Fishing Bait Kit?
The kit ships with 18 pieces, all built on carbon steel fly hooks and listed under the Black-18pcs color option. At a total weight of 27.22 grams, that works out to a light, easy-to-carry set for stocking a fly box ahead of a trip.
How does the price compare to similar dry-fly kits?
At $8.99, this kit costs about a dollar more than the Adams Assortment and Adams 1010, both priced at $7.99. It offsets that gap with 18 pieces versus 12 in the Adams 1010, making the per-fly cost lower despite the higher sticker price.
Is the 4.3 star rating reliable given the review count?
With 119 reviews, the rating sits on a moderate sample size, smaller than the Adams Assortment's 292 reviews but larger than the Mouse 1015's 111. Combined with 100+ bought last month, it reflects consistent, current demand rather than a rating built on a handful of early reviews.
