I have fished spike tail lures and done okay with them but nothing impressive. The <em>tail quiver</em> is key. So one day recently I figured that since Senkos and mini-sticks have done well with their leg waddle action when wacky rigged, why not a super-small stick using rod tip twitches mid-depth. Man did it catch different fish species the first time tried!!

I took a grub body (after cutting off the curl tail) and attached two stinger-type tails to both ends using a candle flame:

Using light 1/32, 1/24 or 1/16 oz. jigs is needed to get the lure to sink fast enough but still allow the lure to be worked mid-depth.
