Northland Mimic Minnow Shiner Tails


Recommended Posts

Well I like plastics for walleyes and Crappies and Im a sucker for sale bins of plastics. Well a while back I grabbed a few bags of these Mimic Minnow Shiner Tails out of a 50% off table at Marine General. Last week was the 1st time I finally put one on a jig and went crappie fishing. Needless to say the crappies absolutely pounded them. The crappies actually seemed to prefer them over minnows on a few days.

Only issue is I cant find them around my area and Im going to have to oder a bunch through Northlands HSOforum. I also heard that these may be being discontinued so Im going to get a bunch. If your a crappie and even walleye guys I recomend you get some of these if you find them in your area, especially if they might be discontinued. I know Im ordering my fill for a few years. wink

Oh sorry but I forgot to mention my best color was the Gold Shiner with the Silver Shiner and Glow Rainbow coming in distant 2nd and 3rd. The glow sunfish seemed to catch more walleyes in the dark water of the St. Louis River.

I've been using them for walleyes for some time. My favorite is the Silver Shiner. I buy the recloseable bags of just the plastic bodies, not the two packs that have the jig already in them. Less than $2.00 for a pack of 8, just insert your favorite 1/8 or 1/4 oz jig and hang on.

Are these the older ones without the fins on top? If so, one of my favorite Walleye lures of all times.I ordered a bunch from Northland 2 years ago and after giving a bunch away realized I only had a dozen left. Perch and Silver Shiner are my favorites too.

    • got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out
    • By The way that didn't work either!! Screw it I'll just use the cellular. 
    • It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
