Overview
Built for anglers working around cover and structure, this soft-plastic minnow is designed to maintain a natural swimming action at a range of retrieve speeds. Its ElaZtech construction is described as both soft and highly durable, making it a practical option when repeated casts and contact with cover are part of the plan. The molded-in hook slot and dorsal fin hook pocket are intended to help reduce snags and support cleaner hook sets. Sold in a 5-pack, it suits fishermen looking for a versatile bait for everyday use in pressured or cluttered water.
