Hey John, I Have, but I also tie my own.

Comment by John Sheehan on Tuesday

Hey Bruce! Did you ever try the MT Hellgrammites and Nymphs? The Black and natural colors have caught for me in the past.

Comment by Bruce Tomaselli on Monday

There is a big dam near where I live and it's pretty loaded with crappie and gills. You use to have to walk a long downhill decent to the lake and a long ascent back up. About 10 years ago they built, roads, allowed small motor boats, and built docks at the breast. It's become a circus during the crappie spawn. It was at this dam we first used twisters plain, and tipped with minnows. There is a  9-inch minimum.

Thanks Bruce! Love using Mister Twister 1"- 4" Plastic Grubs! Especially on Hair Jigs or Spoons.

Very cool old nostalgic fishing stuff , hey Bruce! Glad you enjoy! What Mister Twister article are you referring to?

Comment by Bruce Tomaselli on Sunday

According to the Mister Twister article I was wrong. There were more than 3 colors offered and various sizes. Maybe I only shopped for the crappie size twisters at the time or the bass size didn't get to Pennsylvania until later. They worked as they were without tipping them with a minnow or other bait, although I also did that, too. Yellow ands white worked the best for me.

Comment by Bruce Tomaselli on Sunday

Wow! This is a gold mine of info right down to the articles at the bottom. I remember when Mister Twisters were first introduced. The first colors offered were yellow, white and black, I believe. Awesome reads!
