The body is deliberately slim and light at 12.5g to keep air resistance to a minimum, which is what lets a lure of this weight cast like a much larger minnow — and it stays stable in flight rather than helicoptering. The small tip bill sets the diving depth at roughly 40cm, the feeding band seabass work when they push bait against the surface. Action is a tight wobble-and-roll that holds together across an unusually wide retrieve-speed range, from a very slow crawl through to a medium-fast wind, so you can search a flat and then slow down over a hot spot without changing lures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSlow floating shallow-diving jerkbait minnow, 121.5mm (4.8 in), 12.5g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRuns at approximately 40cm, matched to the surface feeding band of seabass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSlim, low-drag body for casting distance well beyond its weight class\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUltra-small tip bill for a tight wobbling and rolling action\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWide effective retrieve-speed range, from very slow to medium-fast\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStable in flight, which helps in a headwind off an open beach\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade in Japan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow To Fish It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSlow steady wind\u003c\/strong\u003e — The default.
