Hey all you musky crazies! Several of Wizzie tail customers have made this suggestion: pre holiday fisherman’s wish list sale. Great x-mas, birthday, or you’re the best presents. If you buy 3 lures ($45 minimum) we will add a free turkey tail. If you buy 4 lures of any kind we will add a free medium size skunk tail. If you buy any combination of 14 leaders, tail gunners, lure modifiers or tinseled hooks ($40 minimum) we will add 4 free.

This special runs through Thanksgiving day. To place an order please message us or email [email protected]

Stay tuned for a surprise Black Friday deal!

For the followers of WTL:

This past summer has been a whirlwind of new and revisited endeavors. Our skunk tails have found a re-newed popularity with our followers. The durability and reliability haven't changed. The contrast with the black and the white is still there, but the popularity is back. Our turkey tails not dyed hackle or marabou, but natural wild turkey feathers have generated many, many comments. "Looks good in the water," and "Looks like a muskrat," and "It's my new go to bait," are just a few.

We have two sizes of turkey tails and also our new turkey feathered "odd ball." Our new (not yet named) lure brings that top water noise and vibration under the water.

For pictures, explanation. cost and color options please reach out and view our website at https://wizzietaillures.weebly.com/

Also as always, if you're looking for something custom, we will make it for you!

Thanks for following -Wizzie

Back in the 1990's, "Wizzie Tail Lures" was a well established musky lure business that was put to bed by Tom "Wizzie" Wisniewski. Together, with the help of his daughters, wife, and son-in-laws,...

2023 Canada Results and Report
Our little Feather Dusters in Rainbow, Crappie and Wisconsins Finest really produced.
1.) Marcus Heid's first Musky 39"
2.) Jason Heid's 35" and 37"
3.) Tyler Lewis's 32.5", 29", 33" 40", 50", 35", and 37.5" (His first 50"!!!)

The first week was rain, wind, more rain, than more wind, than more rain. The second week was just plain hot, hot, hot. Factor in a compression fracture, artificial knee, sore body and than mix in old age. Ah Heck, I was still there! We're looking forward to 2024! -Wizzie

It’s, Birthday month, musky season and reflection time…

Wendy caught all 4 ski’s. We all know dark time is hairy for fingers when holding larger fish. Wendy determined Wizzie’s fingers are expendable thus he is responsible for holding her after dark muskies.

Happy birthday Wendy on May 23rd, and many many more!
