Product description
This 71mm sinking minnow weighs 10g and is built for anglers who want precise control over depth and fall rate. Its slim profile and tight wobbling action mimic small baitfish, making it a natural fit for largemouth bass, lake trout, and catfish keyed in on shad or minnows. The sinking design lets you work the bait through the entire water column, from subsurface twitches to a controlled fall along drop-offs.
Cast it around laydowns, rock piles, or bridge pilings and work it with a twitch-pause retrieve to trigger reaction strikes. The 71mm size and 10g weight combine for long, accurate casts even in windy conditions, and the sinking profile keeps the bait in the strike zone longer than a floating jerkbait would.
How to fish it
- Cast near laydowns, rock piles, or bridge pilings where fish hold tight to cover
- Use a twitch-pause retrieve to trigger reaction strikes
- Let the lure sink along drop-offs to work deeper zones
- Vary pause length to control fall rate and depth in the strike zone
