Description

“The MadEye Minnow is the absolute best cold-water trolling walleye bait I have ever used,” said SPRO Pro Rob Ruckman. Ruckman cites the distinctive rolling and wobbling action that allows it to be trolled effectively at speeds as slow as 0.8 miles per hour and big fish profile that offers a meal worth pursuing even in near-freezing water. The unique bill design is tuned to perform well at a variety of depths down to 20 feet. Or, as Ruckman puts it, “The MadEye Minnow reaches deep water haunts where the big fish play.” Loud knocking sound Moves water with rolling action Size: 120 mm Weight: 1/2 oz.

Field Notes

This is a deep-diving trolling minnow designed for cold water and slow presentations. It works best when trolled around 0.8 mph to reach fish holding near structure or deeper breaks down to about 20 feet. The loud knocking sound and rolling wobble help draw strikes when fish are less active.

Pros

  • Reaches down to about 20 feet
  • Effective at very slow trolling speeds
  • Loud knocking sound and strong rolling action

Cons

  • Primarily a trolling bait, so it is less versatile for casting
  • Treble hooks can snag cover easily
