Description

Backwater Minnows paddle tail swimbaits deliver lifelike swimming action and flash that draw 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 Midnight Flash color pairs a dark, baitfish silhouette with subtle silver micro-flash that excels in low light and stained water—perfect for dawn and dusk, overcast days, or night fishing around docks and bridges. These swimbaits can be rigged on jig heads, weighted hooks, or fished under a popping cork. Each pack includes ten paddle tails so you’re ready when the bite turns on.
