Field Notes

This shallow minnow bait is built for pulling or steady retrieves over vegetation, sand flats, and stump fields. The slow rise on the pause makes it useful for triggering follows into strikes, especially when fish are holding shallow and want a bait that hangs in the strike zone briefly.

Pros

  • Shallow-running profile is good for covering skinny water
  • Slow rise on pause can trigger reaction bites
  • Works over vegetation and stump cover

Cons

  • Only runs about 18 inches deep, so it is not a deep-water option
  • Best presentation is a pull retrieve, which may take some practice
