Thread: New Stiffy Twitch Bait!!

    New Stiffy Twitch Bait!!

    Hi all,

    Here is a new lure that is a must have in your tackle box. It is the New Stiffy Twitch Bait, it comes in a range of colours, it is completed with owner hooks and rings.

    We tested them out on the weekend, they are a awesome lure to use. The stiffy twitch bait looks like a B52 but suspends and has a great action too.
    You can work them any way you like, fast, slow, extra long pauses.

    I got a 101cm on the twitch bait. The retrieve i was using was, i upwards twitch with a long pause. I really liked using them.

    Cheers Katie

    Steve, if you want a really funky green, why not get some of that paint that changes colours? Used to be about $40 a pack(3 spray cans, only one of the colour though). Should look really good and be a one off colour too. The company that used to put it out was Motorspray. Used to sell it myself but not sure if they still do it. Got me thinkin now. Might be the next in thing.
    hmmmmmmm

    THanks Katie, few more additions coming to the stiffy range very soon, two deep divers, a large extra deep trolling model (8+ metres) and two sizes of 10-12 foot dive models known as "crash divers".
    As per all Stiffy's they come standard with owner rings and stn 66 hooks.
    Had a ball with them in the territory a few months back filming squidgy secrets #5.
    All the proto's caught fish in Awoonga as well.
    Cheers

    Jas ...... Whatever influence you have with Bushy ...... make sure they do something about the Quality control ........ otherwise we'll end up with lures like the Stiffy bony bream that sink , suspend or float ...... & need to be tweaked every time one is bought

    Have no influence over what happens in China mate...............believe me its frustrating from my end too, as I have to do the same. Once a shipment lands, it cannot be changed obvioulsy.
    If it gets to that with these lures mate vote with your dollars. A very small consolation is that tweaking every lure is good however if you buy a lure under the proviso that it floats, it should bloody float!

    Hi Jas ....... If not the influence ....... The ear then
    I totally agree about the tweaking ...... I & probably many others love to toy with our lures ......... but it should be out of enjoyment/ experimentation ..... not necessity!
    Bought one that suspended ........ but only after removing the hooks ...... Sorry

    Looks like an old ABU Killer that I picked out of my dad's lures from the 60's- I'll see if I can find it and take a snap for you to compare....
    P.S. Katie- you need a deckie, butler, boatwasher etc??? ;-)

    Nice work Katie and a top late arvo barra pic.

    On the subject of tweaking, as mentioned by Chris and Jas, I having been removing the belly (middle) trebles on most (not all) of my 3-treble HBs as I am trying to deny any barra the opportunity to use the middle treble as a fulcrum point with either the front or rear trebs.

    Once removed, it forms the starting point for any other fine-tuning with treble size, splits, double splits and sticky weight, add-on colours etc.

    Cheers and congrats again.
