Description

Backwater Minnows paddle tail swimbaits deliver lifelike swimming action and proven fish-catching colors for inshore saltwater fishing. At 3.35 inches and 0.07 oz, these soft plastics are perfect for light tackle setups when targeting redfish, snook, and trout. The Green Pumpkin Gold Flake color combines a natural baitfish tone with added flash, making it a versatile choice in clear or stained water. The paddle tail produces a steady thump and vibration that triggers strikes from wary fish in shallow backwaters, grass flats, and mangroves. These swimbaits can be rigged on jig heads, weighted hooks, or under a popping cork. Each pack includes 10 paddle tails, ensuring you’re ready when the bite is hot.
