Description

Fathead Minnow Spinner Fosco Minnow Spinners are carved from 100% solid Canadian spruce - sealed and double coated with epoxy for maximum durability - and weighted to run true every time with a light-but-steady sinking speed. Designed with realism, simplicity and tradition in mind, these Minnows are perfect for novices and experts alike - simply cast and retrieve; the spinning blade flashes and churns the water, catching and keeping the attention of predators, while the realistic-looking bait-fish body and dressed hook entice aggressive strikes - an absolutely deadly combination that bass, pike, walleye and salmon attack with ferocity! Every Fosco Minnow is constructed by hand in Canada using premium-quality components and materials made in Canada and the U.S.A., and features a made-in-France VMC® Hook. Fathead Minnow Spinner #4

Field Notes

Cast and retrieve steadily so the blade flashes and the body tracks true. Best when trout are feeding on small baitfish, especially in clear to lightly stained water where flash and vibration help fish locate the lure.

Pros

  • Hand-carved wooden body with durable epoxy finish
  • Strong flash and vibration from the spinning blade
  • Versatile cast-and-retrieve presentation

Cons

  • Single-hook spinner can be less weedless than some alternatives
  • Heavier size may be better suited to larger trout waters
