I keep and use both. The thunderstick is a great top twitch bait when the fish are on the surface or just under as is the long A.

As for the sliver, I experimented with the retrieve some this year and got my only two fish on a fast twitch and really long delay (7 seconds or so). They drop really slow, and I decided to use that to my advantage. The fish were obviously very inactive the short times I was out.
