Description

The Don is a 5" minnow built to change the way that you mid-stroll. Poured in the USA, and specifically designed to work on all species of freshwater fish. The unique shape of all sides of the bait along with the wedged tail all have been fine-tuned over years on the tournament trail to create the perfect mid strolling minnow style bait. From plastic that is slightly softer to a proprietary 0% salt formula that allows for overall neutral buoyancy of the bait... All of this has had great care and testing to make sure this is the best minnow ever made. All of these factors contribute to a crisp clean rolling action. This is the bait that was hand poured late at night for years that helped win some of the top tournaments in the country and was the “secret” that was never shown until it was shown in the Top 10 Baits article in March of 2024 in the Toyota Series event on Kentucky Lake as the winning bait. It's time to change the way you mid-stroll with The Don! 5 Per Pack

Field Notes

This is a 5-inch soft plastic minnow designed for mid-strolling, so it shines when fish are suspended and feeding on baitfish. Work it with a steady, subtle retrieve to produce a crisp rolling action and keep the bait in the strike zone. Best around open-water schools, points, and offshore structure where a neutral-buoyancy minnow can be fished precisely.

Pros

  • Neutral buoyancy helps it stay in the strike zone
  • Crisp rolling action for mid-strolling
  • Versatile for multiple freshwater species

Cons

  • Specialized technique may be less familiar to beginners
  • Soft body can tear after repeated fish
