N.Y. Yankee Posted April 9, 2021 Posted April 9, 2021 Probably already been threads on this but do you use the Mepps Comet Combo with a Mr Twister Curlytail? What are you fav size and colors? Thanks. Quote
Super User MN Fisher Posted April 9, 2021 Super User Posted April 9, 2021 I haven't seen those - have original Comets that work good. I might have to dig some money out of the couch and get a couple to try. 1 Quote
garroyo130 Posted April 9, 2021 Posted April 9, 2021 #3 black/yellow *et but if you're headed the Mepps route, a #3 dressed Black Fury in yellow (not chartreuse) cant be beat 1 Quote
N.Y. Yankee Posted April 9, 2021 Author Posted April 9, 2021 The Comet Minnow was always a fish catcher. A friend of mine only ever owned a spincasting rod, a small metal tackle box and about 3 dozen Mepps Minnows of all sizes and that was all, the only lure he used. He caught all kinds of fish with them. I figure the Comet Combo ought to be popular too. 1 minute ago, garroyo130 said: #3 black/yellow *et but if you're headed the Mepps route, a #3 dressed Black Fury in yellow (not chartreuse) cant be beat Yep! Its a great lure! Quote
Guitarfish Posted April 9, 2021 Posted April 9, 2021 I have a bunch of them in various sizes, up to about 3" long (body). Have never caught a fish on them. Maybe when I move to Oregon, lol. Quote
Captain Phil Posted April 9, 2021 Posted April 9, 2021 I once won a tournament on a Mepps Comet Mino lure. The bass were schooling and they ate it up. 1 Quote
Super User Deleted account Posted April 9, 2021 Super User Posted April 9, 2021 I don't fish the Comet, but I do make my own inlines with 3"-5" plastics attached either open hook, or twist-lock t-rigged. I like #3 and #4 blades, Straight or split tail BA type plastics are my favorite. I originally built them as pike and pickerel lures, and bass started biting them regularly. 1 Quote
