Why these fit

These are all purpose-built soft-plastic-jerkbaits aimed at forward facing sonar fishing, so they’re the right starting point when you want to watch fish react and trigger them with subtle movement. The 3" and 4" options are good for pressured fish or smaller bait profiles, while the 5" versions are better when bass are keying on larger shad.
For color choice, YUM FF Sonar Minnow-Clear Shad-4" and YUM FF Sonar Minnow-Gizzard Shad-5" are strong shad-style picks, while YUM FF Sonar Minnow-AYU-4" is a solid natural option. The listed price of $3.99 makes them an easy, low-risk way to stock multiple colors/sizes.

Technique notes

Rig on a light jighead or suitable FFS minnow setup.
Cast past or beyond the fish, then keep the bait in the sonar cone as long as possible.
Use small twitches, pauses, and slow glides rather than aggressive jerks.
Match size to the baitfish you see on sonar: 3" for finesse, 4" as the all-around choice, 5" when fish want more bulk.

When to switch

Switch to a different lure if fish are suspended but won’t rise, if they’re buried in cover, or if they want a faster fall or more vibration than a minnow can give. If they keep following without committing, try a smaller size, a different color, or a more compact presentation.
