Description

Backwater Minnows paddle tail swimbaits deliver lifelike swimming action and flash that draws strikes from inshore gamefish. Measuring 3.35 inches and 0.07 oz, these soft plastics are ideal for light tackle setups when targeting redfish, snook, and trout. The Blue Tide color features a cool silver and blue flash that stands out in clear or lightly stained water, closely imitating small baitfish such as pilchards and glass minnows. The subtle paddle-tail design produces a steady thump and vibration that provokes reaction strikes across flats, channels, and mangrove edges. These swimbaits can be rigged on jig heads, weighted hooks, or under a popping cork. Each pack includes ten paddle tails, ready for your next trip when the bite turns on.
