Facepalmmaster Posted August 23, 2011 Posted August 23, 2011 I just got a pretty cheap 20 pack of Mister Twister 3" Meeny Tail grubs. I had heard they are good for all kinds of fish, including panfish (probably no bluegills since these are the 3"), bass, and more. Is it true? How do you fish them (if you use them)? Quote
jignfule Posted August 23, 2011 Posted August 23, 2011 Good durable little bait. I swim mine on a 1/32 to 1/8 oz. jighead Quote
Super User clayton86 Posted August 23, 2011 Super User Posted August 23, 2011 Good durable little bait. I swim mine on a 1/32 to 1/8 oz. jighead X2 killer on smallmouth all the time and its my panic bait for when the bite gets tough and they ignore everything else Edit: also great swim jig trailers and spinner trailers Quote
Super User J Francho Posted August 23, 2011 Super User Posted August 23, 2011 Yep, a standard ball head. use more weight for a faster retrieve, or to run deeper. Cast out, count down, and slowly reel in. Quote
Stasher1 Posted August 23, 2011 Posted August 23, 2011 Caught my first bass on a 3" glow in the dark Mister Twister and 1/8 oz jighead. Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted August 23, 2011 Super User Posted August 23, 2011 No action. I have a new bag I just bought to try with small swim jigs. These are black. If you want them for free, send me your address in a PM. -Kent a.k.a. roadwarrior Quote
Super User J Francho Posted August 23, 2011 Super User Posted August 23, 2011 No action. LOL, they are the originals! An entire generation of smallmouth fisherman grew up catching smallies with these. Later, it was the Kalins grubs, after that, the Gitzit tubes. Quote
Matt B Posted August 23, 2011 Posted August 23, 2011 (probably no bluegills since these are the 3") Don't bet on that, I've caught some nice bluegills, perch and crappie on 3" chartreuse Mr Twister grubs. Quote
Packard Posted August 24, 2011 Posted August 24, 2011 "probably no bluegills since these are the 3" Wrong, I've caught bluegill on 3" grubs and even a yum dancin' eel. Quote

TrippyJai Posted August 24, 2011 Posted August 24, 2011 I used Mister Twister Grubs when I was a kid and caught a lot of bass and pike on them. Put it on a ball jig head, cast it out and retrieve. Quote

Put it on a ball jig head, cast it out and retrieve. The problem is that my pond has heavy weeds, so jigs dont do too well unless theyre weedless, and i dont have any weedless jigs Quote
The Bassinator Posted August 24, 2011 Posted August 24, 2011 Texas rig it and swim it, same idea different rigging Quote
Super User clayton86 Posted August 24, 2011 Super User Posted August 24, 2011 The problem is that my pond has heavy weeds, so jigs dont do too well unless theyre weedless, and i dont have any weedless jigs Texas rig it then either traditional trig or use the ball jig thread it ya know like 3/8ths an inch down pop the point turn the grub and texpose and wala weedless. That or get a round shakey head they work the same Quote
SENKOSAM Posted August 26, 2011 Posted August 26, 2011 Rig it on a Bitsy jig with brush guard. I can't visualize rigging a 3" grub Texas rig. Great smallmouth and pickerel lure especially in yellow! Quote
