Museum Archive: Vintage Mister Twister Mister Crank Bait, 1/3oz crawfish fishing lure #18242

Detailed crawfish markings across the back and sides pair with a bright orange belly to create a high-contrast profile on this 2" (5 cm) crankbait. Produced in Japan in 1983, the Mister Twister Mister Crank Bait is a floating model designed to reach depths of 9.8 ft (3 m). At 1/3 oz (10 g), the lure is balanced for both casting and trolling, particularly for targeting pike and walleye. The clear, wide diving lip and internal rattling chamber are essential features of this 18242 product code specimen. Small red eye dots are positioned just above the bill, providing a distinct visual trigger at the head of the lure. Rated at 4/5, the finish is well-preserved and the original hardware remains in sturdy, functional shape.
