| Just wanted to say thanks to the owner of this product. My friend who throws rubber religously was in a bad accident at his house and has third degree burns on his hands and feet. The owner of rubber hairy tackle donated a free twinkie for him to throw when he heals up. Class act all the way. Thank you again. Custom X also threw in a free crank bait. Thank you also Chuck. |

BTW, they only take cash or credit card...no rubber checks. |

| One of the best rubber baits IMHO. One of the few baits that's has a narrative action in the water! Love the bait can't wait to throw it more this year! I'm sure a super beast will fall for one! |

| RubberHairy tackle company has earned my respect as a company, I ordered two twisted tubilees, one had and issue and one was the wrong color......you say well that does not seem like good business, but I sent one email and the responder email response was how can we make it right, they fixed the problem with the one and sent me a new tubilee in the color I originally ordered, no questions asked........I know that is what companies are to do, keep the customer happy......but also today how many companies really practice what they preach, RubberHairy tackle company does and I respect that. Haven't thrown the bait yet, but look forward to releasing a musky with these lures and plan to keep an eye on this tackle company. Thanks for a very satisfied and happy customer

| The Twinkiee has two stand out feature that no other soft plastic has. The rib tail thumps way more than your normal smooth tail would, which allows you to get the attention of Muskies in stained or cloudy water conditions. Not only do the rib tails allow these baits to stand out, but the color patterns are just as unique. This combination is par none to any other soft plastic on the market. These key features are why I will always throw RubberHairy's baits. Eric is a great guy and will help you in any way possible for color options. His 4'' spring Twinkiee will definitely be a must have in the early season, and my go to bait. What do you think Eric will come up with next? |

| Wanted to post a quick comparison picture between the giant Twinkiee and a Pounder. Very basic picture, but hope it helps.

Nice comparison picture. I've been wondering how they compare in size to other similar weight baits. Looks like a good profile on them.
I'll have to get a couple. The pool demo video looked good!

Location: Lake "y" cause lake"x" got over fished | I have tested the action on a few different occasions in my pool at my apt. And I love it. I may be more excited to try this out this season then anything else that I have picked up. We will see if that still stands after I spend money at the expo. But this bait is killer. Great action, very erratic. REALLY looking forward to tossing this bait |

Location: Minocqua, WI | I had the privilege of acquiring one of the first twinkees before it even had a name. Eric sent me a message saying he created a new bait it hadn't seen water yet. He sent me a prototype and it performed beautifully. Has a great action distinctly different due to the body size/tail ratio. Work it slower vs ripping it for best results. Were between the original name was going to be the "Brat haha but I think Twinkee was the best choice. After all, everyone loves a twinkee! |

Wonder if the cream filling model looks the same.
