I tried out a lure tonight that my dad had in his tackle box. I'd ask him, but he passed away about 2 years ago.

Anyway, the lure looks much like a beetle spin, but has a mister twister shad type on the jig head and the blade is sort of like a 2 piece silver Colorado blade. (they can be pushed together for a colorado blade style or moved apart further and further for a different action or vibration. they function on a rivet so that they can swing together or apart on one end) if you space the 2 blade sections at near their max range it creates a side to side swinging pendulum type thing that makes the lure have a wobble much like a crankbait. combine that with the soft bodied shad on the jighead and it's a pretty cool action.

it's pretty unique even though it may or may not be old news. the reason I ask what this is - it worked very well and I'd like to purchase more since I almost lost this lure in a rock bed tonight. caught a couple largemouth and a few rock bass on it. oh, and I believe it had the mister twister name on the blades and not just the shad body. (which confuses me since I figured it was a johnson beetle spin with a minnow instead of the beetle body.

either way - I did several google searches and couldn't find anything out. thanks in advance for any help!

If you could take a picture and post it, it would help tremendously.

I really need to buy a digital camera.  >

I can take the pic with my phone, but lack the cord to connect it to my pc. maybe I'll see if I can pick one of those up tomorrow.

Try emailing the pic to yourself. It works for me.
