YOZURI - MAG CRYSTAL MINNOW 125mm F1133 SINKING CASTING LURE

Yozuri Mag Crystal Minnow 125mm F1133 Sinking Casting Lure

The Mag Crystal Minnow is the long-casting, sinking member of the Crystal Minnow family, built around Yo-Zuri's patented Magnet Weight Transfer System. Internal weights slide to the tail on the cast and are held there by magnets until the lure lands, which stops the body tumbling and adds real distance into a headwind. On the retrieve the weights return to centre so the lure sits balanced and swims with the tight wobble and darting recovery the range is known for. At 125mm and 18g in a sinking body, it is aimed at shore anglers working surf gutters, breakwalls and river mouths, where distance and the ability to fish under the surface chop both matter.

How To Fish It

Long cast and count down — Load the rod slowly so the weight transfers fully, cast, then count the lure down before you start winding. One count for surface-feeding fish, five to ten counts to fish under the chop or over a deeper gutter.
Steady swim — A medium, unbroken retrieve keeps the wobble running true. This is the highest-percentage retrieve at first light and in coloured water.
Twitch and pause — Two or three sharp taps of the rod tip to make the lure dart sideways, then a pause so it sinks slowly and level. Work this over sand holes and along wash lines.
Fish the wash — Cast beyond a breaking bank or rock wash and bring the lure back through the white water, slowing as it enters the calm behind the wash where predators sit.
