Any suggestions for smaller 6-7 inch twitches and 9-10 inches? Appreciate the help.

Clammer, let me know what you think about the Big Game compared to the Cranes. Never have thrown either, but am interested in both. Thanks.

Slammers all the way. He has all the sizes you are asking about and they really hold up to a beating.

Location: Grand Marais, MN		Big games are my favorite muskie lure period, although the slammers and cranes and customX are good too, all pretty much fill the same niche. Perhaps pick a few of the various brands up and see which profile and weight you like best, you basically cant go wrong. I prefer these types of lures built out of wood over plastic too, I think the slammers are plastic, big games and customx are wood. just personal preference tho

Will do, but I won't get to try for a couple weeks when I head up North. No fishing until then unfortunately. Maybe someone else will chime in as I am sure many have used both. I really like Cranes as they really rise with that balsa, but they don't seem to last too long.

Really, what is a "Twitch Bait"? Two suggestions are the 6" Jake (I like to downsize the hooks to #1) and 7.5" Grandma.
