Thread: Mister Twister Question

mister twister 1 inch curly tails are not very good baits , as stated they require you to drag them terribly fast to get the tail going .....
most of the short plastic small curly tail stuff is like that , there are better choices for sunfish for sure .....and IF you find a soft enough curly tail to swim at low slow retrieval speeds, they tend to bite the tails off by the second or third cast, if not the first anyway

After a weekend of giving the Mister Twister 1 inchers an honest try, I agree with you 100%. My go to has been the Charlie Brewer 1" Slider Grub. Those get the tail bit off fairly often. I have found the tail biters are usually small fish. It was just disappointing because that 1" twister tail was the perfect size I was looking for.

Might have to try some 1.5" or 2" twister tails. I did order some of these to try: 1.5" Curl Tail Grub (2SG)

Let us know if they fit the bill. They all look good on paper but we know they aren’t all the same. I have a box of Charlie brewer 1” and I agree that the tails don’t last long but they’re the ticket for size and action. Like you, I’m always looking for something better.
