This is a precision 3D printable master model inspired by the classic Curly Tail Grub, also known as the twister tail grub — one of the most iconic and versatile soft plastic lure designs in fishing history, originally created by Mr. Twister in 1972. This model is a replica inspired design that closely matches the distinctive profile with a ribbed rounded body and a thin curved tail that creates a tantalizing rippling motion in the water. It is intended for mold making purposes: use it to create silicone or RTV molds for small scale production of soft plastic lures.
Design Features:
Ribbed rounded body that traps air and water for enhanced vibration
Thin signature curly tail that undulates and spins on retrieve creating lifelike action
The curl and hook bend should go in opposite directions when rigging to maximize tail action and prevent line twist
Body shape designed for easy threading onto standard round jig heads
Works effectively on slow retrieve, steady retrieve, lift and drop, and even on the fall before retrieve begins
Compatible with jig heads, spinnerbaits, spoons, and Texas rig
Available in size replicas from 1 inch for panfish up to 10 inches for saltwater species
Optimized surfaces for easy demolding
Important note: This is an inspired replica design based on the original curly tail grub design. For personal use and small batch production only.
