Length: 89mm /Weight: 11.8g /Type: Slow floating /Range: 3.5-4m
The short bill minnow has a silhouette similar to a real baitfish and is a world standard lure that is often used at depths of 1-2 meters regardless of the season.
On the other hand, minnows that attack water deeper than 2.5m do not seem to be used much. In order to make a difference in such a situation, I aimed for a minnow that can be attacked at a depth of about 3.5-4 meters with a baitcasting tackle.
Typical minnow sizes range from 7 to 13 cm, but we chose the 9 cm class, which has the weight to provide the necessary flying distance to make the minnow dive 4 m, and has a size similar to that of baitfish in that range.
Also, in order to differentiate it from a crank, we focused on its slenderness, which is an advantage of minnows.
In the first place, one of the drawbacks of long bill minnows is that it is difficult to achieve long distances. This tendency is especially noticeable as the lip size increases to differentiate the range.
