You are correct sir! No longer made, but they show up now and again on the boards or e-bay. I have a handful and this may be the year to rediscover the Twin Topkick. One of my favorites on Boom Lake back in the day. Steve

Nope, not being made anymore. The guy that bought the company from Dick, I don't think he ever made a single lure. Might have finished a couple.

I called him when some folks were asking about Strikers last year and should I give them your phone number, He says "No, no, don't do that."

Mr Gries had some good lures, shame to see them gone.

I took the middle hook off and put a larger sized on the front. It was tangling too much the other way.

Russ Smith (Smitty baits) purchased the company from The Schwingle family who got it from Dick back in the early 90's. You might want to contact Russ and see if he will be making the Super model. I know he has some of the regular ones.
