Product description
The TSURINOYA DW96 80S is a sinking minnow style jerkbait built as a hard bait for rockfish and general jerkbait fishing. It measures 80mm and weighs 12g, giving it enough mass to cast well and sink through the water column.
As a sinking minnow it works for jerkbait retrieves in freshwater streams and can also be fished in saltwater for rockfish. It comes in twelve color patterns (DW96-A through DW96-L) so you can match it to water clarity and light conditions.
How to fish it
- Let the lure sink to your target depth before starting the retrieve since it is a sinking minnow.
- Use a jerkbait cadence of short rod snaps followed by pauses to let the bait fall and flash.
- Fish it along rocky structure and drop-offs where rockfish hold.
- Vary the pause length between jerks depending on how active the fish are that day.
