Overview
A minnow is a slim hard lure with a small diving lip that imitates a baitfish. At 8.3 cm (3.3 in) and 12 g (0.42 oz), it suits perch, trout in big rivers and lakes, black bass and zander in shallow water.
This pack contains five different colours from the same series, made of ABS. Two retrieves work well: a steady straight retrieve, and twitching (short, sharp flicks of the rod tip followed by pauses), which makes the lure dart from side to side like an injured fish. At 12 g (0.42 oz) it casts easily on a light to medium spinning rod.
Limitations: the listing states neither the running depth, whether the lure floats or sinks, nor the type of hooks fitted. Rinse the hooks in fresh water after use to limit rust.
